You are the rolling ocean
2
You are the mighty sea
3
You are the breath that brings each new day to me
4
You are what you are, you are
5
You be what you are, you be what you are
6
Some came to conquer
7
Some came to understand
8
Some came to live their lives as best they can
9
Me, I looked up at the stars to find my way
10
But I was young and I got them mixed up
11
And so forgot my name
12
As I tried to remember you were standing next to me
13
While other came seeking power
14
You, you had come to set them free
15
You are the rolling ocean
16
You are the mighty sea
17
You are the breath that brings each new day to me
18
You are what you are, you are
19
You be what you are, you be what you are
20
Women of salt and earth
21
They tell the same story
22

Wearing rags of glory
24

25
When you wept they saw you smiling at your weeping
26
When you smiled they saw you smiling at your smiling
27
And you said that's the way I've survived these years of dust and
28
Blood.

32
You are what you are, you are
33
You be what you are, you be what you are
34
Suffer little children
35
Suffer sister, brother too
36
Suffer mother, father
37
That's all the world can promise you
38
In our hearts we feel it
39
A mighty dream is coming true
40
Hold on and we'll dream it
41
Keep it up we're going to push it through
42
Don't give it up, don't give it up
