GUEST ADD: We Were There (Sandra Kerr) (18) Have lyrics, but no author 13 Sep 25


I have the lyrics and tune, but can't find any details of the author. Maybe I've got the song title wrong? Any help appreciated.

WE WERE THERE
(Sandra Kerr)

We were there, womankind beheld the earth
We were there, man beside us at our birth
And the world was made for sharing equal giving, equal caring
Learning, growing, doing, daring we were there
Friend and mother, sister, lover we were there

We were there through every strike through every war
We were there, wondering what we’re struggling for
Wondering when our time would come, would brothers, sisters fight as one
Or would we stand alone we were there
Friend and mother, sister, lover we were there

We were there throughout each changing century
We were there but still must write our history
For who heard us when we cried, how many fought how many died
Hand in hand and side by side we were there
Friend and mother, sister, lover we were there

We are here, though the way is long before us
We are here and the world cannot ignore us
We will celebrate our past, and when the future’s ours at last
Who will dare to ask if we were there
Friend and mother, sister, lover we were there
