WE ARE BETTER WHEN WE STAND TOGETHER
Lyrics by Michael Rosen - commissioned by HistoryWorks

Verse 1 (solo / small group)
A child wanders through the ruins
A family fears a knock at the door
A grandma looks for her old home
They know they didn’t start this war
 
Chorus
We are better
When we stand together
When we stand together
We are better
 
Verse 1 (full choir)
A child wanders through the ruins
A family fears a knock at the door
A grandma looks for her old home
They know they didn’t start this war
 
Chorus
We are better
When we stand together
When we stand together
We are better
 
Verse 2
The child is ours, we must make it safe
The family’s ours, we must hear their call
The grandma’s ours, we must find a home
We know we have to stand with all
 
Chorus (2-part round; part 2 enters on *)
We are better
When we stand together
When we *stand together
We are better
 
We are better
When we stand together
When we stand together
We are better
 
We are better
We are better
