In The Girl There's A Room

In the girl there's a room

In the room there's a table

On the table there's a candle

and it won't burn out

In the woman there's a song

in the song there is hope

in the hope revolution

In the boy there's a voice

in the voice there's a calling

In the call there's a promise

and it won't quiet down

In the man there's vision

In the vision is a road

It's the road to his freedom...

Tell me what you know

About God and the world and the human soul

How so much can go wrong

and still there are songs

In the man is a work

and the work is his future

and the future is his children

and he won't slow down

In the woman there's a faith

in the faith there's a prayer

in the prayer there's a promise...

In the boy is a dream

in the dream he is standing

and he stands without shaking/ failing/ wavering/ fear

and he won't sit down

In the girl is a song

In the song there is hope

in the hope there's defiance...

Tell me what you know

About God and the world and the human soul

How so much can be wrong

and still there are songs

In their hearts and souls

an unstoppable refrain

Hope stands/sings in defiance
