Lyrics
Verse 1
We stand together, hand in hand,
Across this great and wide-open land.
A promise made, a dream to keep,
Before the world has gone to sleep.
Chorus
We Are Your Children, hear our song,
We’ve been waiting for so long.
We Are Your Children, bright and true,
A gift of hope we bring to you.
Verse 2
From the mountains to the sea,
A future built for you and me.
With voices loud and hearts so brave,
We’re the ones the future gave.
Bridge
A national anthem, a new decree,
For every child who wants to be free.
Chorus
We Are Your Children, hear our song,
We’ve been waiting for so long.
We Are Your Children, bright and true,
A gift of hope we bring to you.
