Let’s all
braid the strings together
Until we've made a rope
It will be
strong, and last as long
As we don’t
give up hope
There’s no
such thing, as a frail string
When the
sturdy reinforce the weak
The ones
that are bad, that fray, and snap
Are blind to
the technique
The way to
go, combine, and grow
Is with a
mighty rope
~~~*Chorus*~~~
Watch out for the nimble fingers
Going for the knot
Keep your distance from the blades
And fires that burn too hot
We’ll surround them while they’re idle
Bind them as they sleep
Strangle out their noxious power
Promises they didn't keep
There’s always hope
With a mighty rope
~~*~~
For every
strand that stands alone
Praying justice will be won
We’ll weave
them in, as worthy kin
Be sovereign
when we’re done
Constrict the
foul arms of deceit
Summon up the
cause for hope
"We the
people”, of this Nation
Are a mighty
rope
~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~
Compatriots are all around
We can’t win if we remain unbound
We must strike like the stone of David
Pull Goliath to the ground
Good men wait for the right to take
The power from our foe
“We the people” of this Nation
Are a mighty rope
~~*~~
~~~*Chorus*~~~
Watch out for the nimble fingers
Going for the knot
Keep your distance from the blades
And fires that burn too hot
We’ll surround them while they’re idle
Bind them as they sleep
Strangle out their noxious power
Promises they didn't keep
There’s always hope
With a mighty rope
~~*~~
