“Do You Hear the People Sing?” choir version Google link: Sing along
Solo 1
Do you hear the people sing? Singing the song of angry men?
It is the music of the people who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart, echoes the beating of the drums,
There is a life about to start, when tomorrow comes!
Solo 2
Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong and stand with me?
Beyond the barricade is there a world you long to see?
Then join in the fight that will give you the right to be free!

Then join in the fight that will give you the right to be free!
Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong and stand with me?
Somewhere beyond the barricade is there a world you long to see?
Do you hear the people sing? Say, do you hear the distant drums?
It is the future that we bring when tomorrow comes!
Ah!----------Ah! Tomorrow comes!

Speak Life
Some days, life feels perfect. Other days it just ain't workin.
The good, the bad, the right, the wrong and everything in between.
Though it's crazy, amazing. We can turn a heart with the words we say.
Mountains crumble with every syllable. Hope can live or die.
So speak Life, speak Life to the deadest darkest night.
Speak life, speak Life when the sun won't shine and you don't know why.
Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted; watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope,
You speak love, you speak... You speak Life, (oh oh oh oh oh oh) You speak Life. (oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Some days the tongue gets twisted; other days my thoughts just fall apart.
I do, I don't, I will, I won't. It's like I'm drowning in the deep.
Well it's crazy to imagine, words from our lips as the arms of compassion.
Mountains crumble with every syllable. Hope can live or die.
So speak Life, speak Life to the deadest darkest night.
Speak life, speak Life when the sun won't shine and you don't know why.
Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted; watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope,
You speak love, you speak... You speak Life, (oh oh oh oh oh oh) You speak Life. (oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Lift your head a little higher. Spread the love like fire.
Hope will fall like rain when you speak life with the words you say.
Raise your thoughts a little higher. Use your words to inspire.
Joy will fall like rain when you speak life with the things you say.
Lift your head a little higher. Spread the love like fire.
Hope will fall like rain when you speak life with the words you say.
So speak Life, speak Life to the deadest darkest night.
Speak life, speak Life when the sun won't shine and you don't know why.
Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted; watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope,
You speak love, you speak... You speak Life, (oh oh oh oh oh oh) You speak Life. (oh oh oh oh oh oh)
You speak Life, (oh oh oh oh oh oh) You speak Life. (oh oh oh oh oh oh) [repeat]
Some days life feels perfect.
