Text

We are one, we are all,
We stand together, we’ll never fall.

We sing for strength, we sing for love,
We are united, we’ll rise above.

We sing this song to leave our mark
For friends to come and take our part.

And when we go, we will stay near,
We keep the music, sweet and clear.

Though there are times when storms may shake
And fear and doubt may overtake

When we’re afraid, we will keep singing
We must trust our new beginnings.

May our message be the light
That takes your future to new heights.

We leave this here to share our call,
Our song of love and hope for all.

(Multiple authors, Fairfield, CT Bel Canto Singers)
