WOMEN OF THE WORLD

the silent voice rises within me

my whole life I have lived in fear

my lonely heart cries ou t to know

will the world hear my tears?

I am your mother sister daughter

born to be loved not slaughtered

by the men we give our lives to save

we are not honoured we are betrayed.

Chorous

look into my eyes behind the veil

look into a womans soul

all the sorrows a woman may hold’

women of the world must know

I gave you life but you give me death

so many women are laid to rest

honour is the godly truth as

life is sacred in our holy book

chorous

look into my eyes behind the veil

look into a womans soul

all the sorrows a woman may hold

women of the world must know

bridge

holy vessels of gods light

bodies broken in the night

by the reflection of all women to see

gods love is no mystery

I took my spirit by the hand

walked the path unknown to man

by the reflection of all women to see

I found all women are me

told the truth that all may know

it is only by love this world will grow

or man will reap what he sows.
