somebody called a Name
they called for freedom
they called for laughter
they asked that joy and peace
and love might follow after
somebody called a Name
somebody listened long
they heard the thunder
they heard the song
they prayed that ears be open
and hearts would belong
somebody listened long
somebody believed in Life
they touched the sick
they touched the sky
they walked the streets
and brought the broken home
somebody believed in Life
somebody asked questions
they gave no answers
they gave no fight
they asked that in faith
their ways would be right
somebody asked questions
somebody shouted for joy
they painted forgiveness
they painted release
they wanted the truth to
be in action, not only speech
somebody shouted for joy
somebody reached out
they stood in the gap
they stood up tall
they created a bridge
and forgot they were small
somebody reached out
somebody called out loud
they called for freedom
they called for laughter
they hoped that joy and peace
and love would follow after
somebody called out loud
