Voices of the Many

I say yes to happiness
Yes to peace and love
Yes to equality
And light from up above
Yes to ending hunger
Yes to setting free
We are the voices of the many
Yes to democracy
Yes to justice won
Yes to human rights
For every daughter, every son
Yes to rising up
Yes to holding ground
We are the voices of the many

No more silence
No more shame
We say yes — and speak our names
From the heartlands to the sea

Yes to healing wounds
Yes to honest news
Yes to lifting up the ones
The world’s designed to lose
Yes to walking forward
With love as our decree
We are the voices of the many
We are the voices of the many
