Do You Hear Our Sisters Sing?

Do you hear our sisters sing?
and brothers a song of hope today?
It is the music of a people
Who'll be free 'ere come what may!
When the yearning of your heart
overcomes the woe and sorrow
There is a life that will begin as
Hope comes tomorrow!

Will my plea to you avail?
Who will have faith and stand with me?
Somewhere there beyond the pale
There’s a whole new you to see.

Then step into the light
None may deny the right to be free!

Do you hear our sisters sing?
and brothers a song of hope today?
It is the music of a people
Who'll be free 'ere come what may!
When the yearning of your heart
overcomes the woe and sorrow
There is a life that will begin as
Hope comes 'ere tomorrow!

Will you live all you can live?
So that our banner may proceed
Some will fall and some will live
Will you stand to see your cause succeed?
our hopes and dreams
will have been attained indeed.

Do you hear our sisters sing?
and brothers a song of hope today?
It is the music of a people
Who'll be free 'ere come what may!
When the yearning of your heart
overcomes the woe and sorrow
There is a life that will begin as
Hope comes tomorrow!
