"Hands Across America"

Voices of America

This sky's so serene,

Has felt the kiss

Of countless dreams.

And this earth

It smells so sweet,

Cradles us all

In its great heart beat.

So we must learn to love each other

See that man over there, he's my brother.

And when he laughs, I laugh.

And when he cries, I cry.

And when he needs me,

I'll be right there by his side.

Hands Across America.

Hands across this land I love.

Divided we fall.

United we stand.

Hands across America.

Mothers and fathers

Daughters and sons

Should be living together as one.

And I can't help thinking

Again and again

The heart of a strangers beats the same as a friend.

So we must learn to love each other

See those people over there

They're my sister and brother.

And when they laugh, I laugh

And when they cry, I cry

And when they need me, I'll be right there by their side.

Hands across America.

Hands across this land I love.

Divided we fall.

United we stand.

Hands across America.

We are the river of hope

that runs through the valley of fear

And when the lady who smiles

Shines upon us saying

All are welcome here

So we must learn to love each other

See that man over there, he's my brother.

And when he laughs, I laugh.

And when he cries, I cry.

And when he needs me,

I'll be right there by his side.

Hands across America.

Hands across this land I love.

Divided we fall.

United we stand.

Hands across America.

Hands across America.

Hands across this land I love.

Divided we fall.

United we stand.

Hands across America.

Hands across America.

Hands across this land I love.

Divided we fall.

United we stand.

Hands across America.

Hands across America.

Hands across this land I love.

Divided we fall.

United we stand.

Hands across America.
