My New Year’s Wish for All — Let Your Voice Be Heard!
As I wrote my intentions for this year and uploaded them to the blog post, The Answer is Always Love, I found a truly uplifting video, featuring Siedah Garrett, Fergie, and others. For me, the message is timeless and universal and so perfectly aligns with my intention to SPEAK BOLDLY, POWERFULLY and PASSIONATELY that I had to share the lyrics and the video with you.
I found the official website at http://lovevoting.org where I learned that it was originally produced to encourage voter participation. Like I said, for me, the message is timeless.
In this new year, and always, I hope you’ll be brave and speak your truth. Then, create connections and collaborate with others who share your passion. May the ever-increasing circles of the connection lead you to your dreams.
L.O.V.E. Let One Voice Emerge
written by: Patti Austin, Siedah Garrett, Brenda Russell, and Mervyn Warren
One voice means more than you know
Remember that you have a say
It’s your one chance to channel your hopes
So don’t let this chance slip away
Cause everyone matters
It might seem like a whisper
Something no one else will hear
But if we’re together
Truth grows louder and louder
Speak from your conscience with nothing to fear
L.O.V.E.
Let one voice emerge
L.O.V.E.
Let your voice be heard
Women together
L.O.V.E.
Let one voice emerge
Sisters, it’s time, for sure
To honor every sacrifice
Of the brave ones who’ve gone before
‘Cause they’ve already paid the price
And everyone matters
It might seem like a whisper
Something no one else will hear
But if we’re together
Truth grows louder and louder
Speak from your conscience with nothing to fear
L.O.V.E.
Let one voice emerge
L.O.V.E.
Let your voice be heard
L.O.V.E.
Let one voice emerge
L.O.V.E.
Let your voice be heard
Cause everyone matters
It might seem like a whisper
Women together
Till you learn you can roar
We can do better
Truth grows louder and louder
Voices together
Like notes in a chord
Notes in a chord
L.O.V.E.
Let one voice emerge
L.O.V.E.
Let your voice be heard
L.O.V.E.
Let one voice emerge
L.O.V.E.
Let your voice be heard
L.O.V.E.
Let one voice emerge
L.O.V.E.
Let your voice be heard
