A Agreement of the People

Verse 1

So come gather ’round the fire,

Let our hearts speak clear and strong

For the freedoms we’ve been seeking

We have waited far too long.

If we stand as one together,

We will find a peaceful way.

An agreement of the people

For a brighter better day

Chorus

Heavy clouds of war again,

’Neath the weight of fear and pain.

O my friends, why stand divided

When the night is closing in?

We are brothers, we are neighbours

Let the healing now begin.

O my friends, why stand divided

When the night is closing in?

Verse 2

Long years we watched and waited

For wrongs to be made right

Now a simple, common pleading

Sets our purpose in plain sight.

Take the hand that’s offered,

Share the hopes held deep inside

When we truly stand together

Bonds they cannot divide

Chorus

Heavy clouds of war again,

’Neath the weight of fear and pain.

O my friends, why stand divided

When the night is closing in?

We are brothers, we are neighbours

Let the healing now begin.

O my friends, why stand divided

When the night is closing in?
