Lyrics

I am Lady Liberty
I stand for exiles and the poor
Who come to seek a better life
Nothing less, nothing more

Rays of light shine from my crown
Torch of freedom in my hand
Schakles broken at my feet
Hope is where I stand

But now a storm's a brewing
Waves lapping at my feet
Wind blows cold, waves grow strong
A force I must defeat

I'm a guide to hope and freedom
A universal call
Release from all oppression is
Essential for us all

My grip is tight upon the torch
Held with purpose and resolve
But I fear the tempest on the shore
My intentions may dissolve

Hold on to me tightly
As storms grow strong and rough
We will withstand the icy rage
We will rise above

When we rise
No one can stop us
When we rise
For one and all
When we rise
Together arm and arm
We are strong against the squall

So hold on to me tightly
As storms grow strong and rough
We will withstand the icy rage
We will overcome

I bear the torch of freedom
Lit by the spark of love
Come stand with me
You will see
That we will overcome
