One Human Chorus

Different names for morning

The same sun on every face (hummmm)

One child laughs beside the ocean One beneath a mountain sky

Different streets and different stories Still the same light in their eyes

Every home has songs and questions Every heart has known some rain

Every person wants to matter Every person carries pain

We do not have to look the same

To recognize each other’s flame

Different languages One human song Many roads But we all belong Side

by side Let the whole world know

When one heart rises We all can grow Different stories

One human song Many

voices Singing hope along

Oh, oh

We all belong

Oh, oh

One human song (oh-oh)

Respect begins with simple actions

Learn a name and say it right

Make a place beside the table

Let another bring their light

Peace is more than quiet borders

It is dignity each day

It is hearing every person

And making room along the way

We do not have to lose our names To warm our hands

around one flame

Different languages One human song

Many roads But we all belong Side by side Let the whole

world know

When one heart rises We all can grow

Different stories One human song Many voices Singing hope along

Your joy matters

Your grief matters

Your dream matters too

My home matters

Your home matters There is room for me and you

Peace in every language

Sounds like dignity

Love becomes a future When we practice humanity

Different languages One human song

Many roads And we all belong

Hand in hand Let the whole world know

When one heart rises We all can grow Different stories One human

song

A billion voices Singing hope along

Different names

for morning

The same sun

The same song (hummmm)
