STRENGTH TO CARRY ON
words & music November 2016 Aileen Vance/Avenida Music the morning after Trump’s Presidential victory. Rewritten September 2024 to sing during the current election campaign

CHORUS: We will hold each other’s hands
We will have each other’s backs
We will walk into the storm
We will stem the tide of hate and fear
And we’ll give each other strength to carry on

1. There are those who walk among us
Who will say we don’t belong
They will shout and try to silence us
They will try to beat us down
But we were great before that slogan
And we’ll be great when it's gone
And no one can take that from us, so we’ll rise and carry on

CHORUS

2. There’s talk of walls and quotas
There’ll be threats and lies, we know
There’s shock and dread among us
As we watch the hatred grow
But we’ve built bridges across that darkness
We’ve had the power all along
And no one can take that from us, so we’ll rise and carry on

CHORUS

3.They will say that we are evil
But we’ll answer “Love is love.”
They’ll send their thugs to try and stop us
When we march to save the dove
But we still stand for peace & justice
And we still know right from wrong
And no one can take that from us, so we’ll rise and carry on

CHORUS

Good song, Joe. Thanks.

It brings to my mind the Union Maid song as well.
