BECAUSE YOU SERVE
Lyrics, melodies & vocals, written and performed by Ms. Lady
(verse 1)
I go to places I’ve never been.
I see the world through a different lens.
I feel so free, because you serve.
I don’t live in fear, although times get hard.
I stay optimistic even when things fall apart.
I overcome…
(chorus)
Because you serve, freedom rings from every mountain.
And even in a valley, low, somehow you can still generate a smile.
Because you serve, in your presence I stand much taller…
Knowing you stand for me….Knowing you serve.
(verse 2)
I’m free to raise or protest the flag.
I smile to the future and honor the past.
My life is boundless, because you serve.
I’m entitled to march or simply sit-in.
I fight injustice and expect to win.
I persevere…
(chorus)
Because you serve, freedom rings from every mountain.
And even in a valley, low, somehow you can still generate a smile.
Because you serve, in your presence I stand much taller.
Knowing you stand for me….
(bridge)
Knowing you serve, makes me seek to share my sovereignty.
Induce the masses with the promise of the freedom you guard and keep.
You relinquished your liberty, so that mine I might keep.
And so that one day, every man, woman, and child can be free like me.
(chorus)
Because you serve, freedom rings from every mountain.
And even in a valley, low, somehow you can still generate a smile.
Because you serve, in your presence I stand much taller.
It’s because you stand for me, that I will stay free.
Because…..You…..Serve.
