Lyrics to March of the Women
First Line | Next Line |
---|---|
Shout shout up with your song | Cry with the wind for the dawn is breaking |
March, march, swing you along | Wide blows our banner, and hope is waking. |
Song with its story | Dreams with their Glory |
Lo! They Call | and glad is their word! |
Loud and louder it swells | Thunder of freedom, the voice of the Lord! |
Long, long we in the past | Cowered in dread from the light of heaven |
Strong, strong stand we at last | Fearless in faith and with sight new given |
Strength with its beauty, | Life with its duty |
Hear the voice, | oh hear and obey |
These, these - beckon us on | Open your eyes to the blaze of day. |
Comrades - Ye who have dared | First in the battle to strive and sorrow! |
Scorned, spurned - nought have ye cared, | Raising your eyes to a wider morrow. |
Ways that are weary, | days that are dreary |
Toil and pain | by faith ye have borne |
Hail, hail - victors we stand | Wearing the wreath that the brave have worn! |
Life, strife - those two are one, | Naught can ye win but by faith and daring. |
On, on - that ye have done | But for the work of today preparing. |
Firm in reliance, | Laugh a defiance, |
Laugh in hope | for sure is the end |
March, march - many as one | Shoulder to shoulder and friend to friend. |
