They stood together. Under a tree in tall grass on TV. Telling the world their story.
We will be left to wander and fade away. Soldiers came and took our husbands at the break of day.
We will live on and fade away. Soldiers came and killed our children at the break of day. 

Women of hope. Women of change. Women of war and pain. 
I believe the almighty knows each and every one of you by your name. 
Women of hope. Women of change. Women of love, joy, no shame. 
You've got something this little life can never take away. 

Running through the darkness of night with a child by her side. 
Oh Lord, won't you give them a shining armor of light. 
Oh, Lord, won't you give them a shining armor of light. 
Daybreak brings a sign of new life with the power to stand. 
Crossing the border she said, "you will grow free on this land. 
Women of hope. Women of change. Women of war and pain. 
I can feel your power in these words she said. 
" If you're feeling helpless, help someone. If you're feeling helpless, help someone."

Nobody really knows how far they will go to keep on living. 
Nobody really knows how far they will go to keep on giving and forgiving. 
Aung San Suu Kyi living under house arrest for the peaceful protest under house arrest for her peaceful protest. 
When her people asked her for a message she said 
"If you're feeling helpless help someone. If you're feeling helpless, help someone........

Now we know the words, let's sing. 
If you're feeling helpless help someone. If you're feeling helpless help someone. If you're feeling helpless, help someone. If you're feeling helpless help someone......

People of hope. People of change. People of love, joy, no shame. 
I believe the almighty knows each and every one of you by your name.
