More Waters Rising

Описание: This is a song that I created back in March 2016 when the HB2 bill was passed here in North Carolina. Now in the early days of the Trump administration, this song feels deeply resonant. For me, this song is about seeing what's coming on the horizon: harder times that are inevitable and unavoidable. But the answer to the fear of what’s coming is resiliency and claiming a strength within ourselves that has been there all along.
Aspects of this song are inspired from elements of African-American Civil Rights and protest songs.
This song is meant to be sung in groups. Please share this song- use it at protests, use it in church, use it in meetings, add new verses, spread it around!

Lyrics:
There are more waters rising,
This I know, This I know.
There are more waters rising,
This I know.
There are more waters rising,
They will find their way to me.
There are more waters rising,
This I know.

There are more fires burning...

There are more mountains falling...

I will wade through the waters...
I will wade through the waters,
When they find their way to me…

I will walk through the fires…
I will walk through the fires,
When they find their way to me…

I will rebuild the mountains…
I will rebuild the mountains,
When they find their way to me…

Last verse can be “There are more waters rising” again, or “I will wade through the waters” again.
