THIS IS OUR DAY
(music and lyrics by Steve and Velveta Thompson)

Here we stand in unity, oh oh oh.
Destiny is in our hands, oh oh oh.
We can make a difference, declaring hope and peace.
Standing strong together,
Proclaiming this is our day!

Chorus:
This is our day
To make a stance of unity.
We walk in love.
Prepare the way,
For we are here to stay.
This is our day. This is our day.

This generation stand as one, oh oh oh.
Everybody old and young, oh oh oh.
We can make a difference, declaring hope and peace.
Standing strong together,
Proclaiming this is our day!

Repeat Chorus:
Hope is here. No more fear.
Love has come. Hate has gone.

Let's hold hands. Come and dance.
Standing tall. Freedom for all.
This is our day.

Repeat Chorus twice:
Celebrate and sound the drums, oh oh oh.
Everybody join our song, oh oh oh.
We can make a difference, declaring hope and peace.
Standing strong together, proclaiming this
This is our day.

Repeat Chorus twice:
This is our day!
This is our day!
