Lyrics

There’s no oppression   
That won’t give way to openness and freedom
Liberation cannot be defeated 

We all belong here   
Every race and every single person
Everybody’s gift will keep us learning                  
Help us to see how you see

God who sees every dream, every goal, all our hopes
God who hears every cry    
You’re the One who loves us all to life
You love us all to life

There’s nothing hidden   
Privileged secrets now are being spoken
All injustice out into the open
We all belong here  
Every single race and every person                                                
Leave prejudice behind and keep on learning	   
Keep us learning	  
Help us to see how you see
Help us to see how you see

CHORUS

Everyone brown and black or white   
Everyone precious in Your sight
You see us, You see us
Show us the light you see inside  
Show us the light in every life
You see us, You see us 
Give us the courage not to hide     
Speak out for love that’s in Your eyes
You see us, You see all of us
