Album: Songs For A New World Soundtrack

Hear My Song

WOMAN 2:
Child, I know you're weary
And your eyes want to close
The days are getting longer
We're not getting any stronger
Trust me, Mama knows...

But lie in my arms while you're sleeping
And think of the rivers you've crossed
I'll tell you the dreams I've been keeping
For moments like this
When your hope is lost

Hear my song:
It'll help you believe in tomorrow
Hear my song:
It'll show you the way you can shine
Hear my song:
It was made for the time
When you don't know where to go
Listen to the song that I sing
You'll be fine

WOMAN 1:
Child, I know you're frightened
And your throat's parched and dry
But just trust in Mama's singing
And the gift tomorrow's bringing
Trust it. Don't ask why

WOMAN 1 & WOMAN 2:
Just lie in my arms
And I'll tell you
The things that you know, but forget
The lies no one ever could sell you

WOMAN 2:
I know that it's hard

WOMAN 1 & WOMAN 2:
But don't give up get

MAN 1:
Hear my song:
It'll help you believe in tomorrow
Hear my song:
It'll show you the way you can

MAN 1, WOMAN 1, & WOMAN 2:
Shine...

MAN 1:
Hear my song
It was made for the times
When you don't know where to go

MAN 1, WOMAN 1, & WOMAN 2:
Listen to the song that I sing

WOMAN 2:
You'll be fine.

MAN 1, MAN 2, WOMAN 1, & WOMAN 2:
‘Cause I'll be singing —
Hold on
Hold tight

WOMAN 2:
I know it's dark right now
But just believe somehow
That soon there will be light

MAN 1, MAN 2, WOMAN 1, & WOMAN 2:
Hold on
Hold fast

WOMAN 2:
That's not enough for some
But trust the light will come
And we'll get past
You and Mama

MAN 1, MAN 2, WOMAN 1, & WOMAN 2:
Safe at last!

MAN 2:
Hear my song:
It'll help us get through til tomorrow
Hear my song:
It'll help us survive all the pain
Hear my song
It's the one thing I have
That has never let me down

MAN 1, MAN 2, WOMAN 1, & WOMAN 2:
Listen to the song that I sing
Listen to the words in my heart
Listen to the hope I can bring
And you'll start to grow
And shine

JASON ROBERT BROWN:
Listen to the song that I sing
And trust me...

MAN 1, MAN 2, WOMAN 1, & WOMAN 2:
We'll be fine...

WOMAN 1:
A new world calls across the ocean!
