Many More Rise

Today I join a sisterhood that wraps itself in black
Whose children won't grow old, whose children won't be back
The mothers of the disappeared, the mothers of the slain
Of the innocent falsely accused, their reputations stained

But I stood close - close enough to see through his eyes
The good in everyone and the darkness that we all try to hide
He laid us all bare - we were free if we would recognize it
Then he laid himself down and absorbed all our rage and hatred

But I stood close - close enough to see through his eyes
The good in everyone and the darkness that we all try to hide
He laid us all bare - we were free if we would recognize it
Then he laid himself down and absorbed all our rage and hatred

But as my child falls, watch so many more rise
With fire in their hearts and his love in their eyes
See the numbers swell to a torrent, to a flood
Of justice, of wisdom, of kindness, of good

Yes as my child falls, watch so many more rise
With fire in their hearts and his love in their eyes
See the numbers swell to a torrent, to a flood
Of justice, of wisdom, of kindness, of good

Yes, the numbers swell, you can not contain this flood
Of justice, of wisdom, of kindness, of good
