United In Our Brilliance

We’re not wishing for a better world
‘Cause we don’t need to wish for what we know will be.
We’re not asking God to fix the problems we all face
‘Cause He’s given us each other, an’ that’s all we really need
And we have the vision, and we have the faith
Let us begin, let us stand up and joyfully take our place
United in our brilliance for the benefit of all
We are so blessed to be the ones to heed the call
As long as one of us is suffering then none’s of us is free
A world that works for everyone is what was meant to be
The world keeps getting smaller day by day
It’s getting harder and harder to look the other way
But still I know we have the courage to do what’s right
And to lead this tired world into a brighter light
We have the vision, and we have the heart
Now all we need is to stand up and boldly make a start
United in our brilliance for the benefit of all
We are so blessed to be the ones to heed the call
As long as one of us is suffering then none’s of us is free
A world that works for everyone is what was meant to be
This world will heal, all will be free
The dark will fail in the Light of Love that flows through you and me
United in our brilliance for the benefit of all
We are so blessed to be the ones to heed the call
As long as one of us is suffering then none’s of us is free
A world that works for everyone is what was meant to be
