Build Up
How shall we pursue the dream?
On the rock, build on the rock of justice.
Building true equality,
Till we build up a new foundation.
Using our united power…
On the rock, build on the rock of justice.
Duty bound we seize the hour….
Till we build up a new foundation.
Ch: Build up, build up build up a new foundation.
Build up, build up, oh build up a new foundation.
Compassion’s empty without deed…
Action’s what the afflicted need…
Level every playing field…
Work until the breach is healed….
Doubting the official word…
Letting every voice be heard….
Challenging the club of power…
Giving common good the floor….
Crossing borders of the heart…
Build the right way from the start….
Listen to the spirit’s call…
Crumble the dividing wall….
Hope, but never sit and wait…
Learn to use the tools of change….
Listen to the spirit’s call…
Life’s abundance meant for all….
