When the waves roll on, Over the waters And the ocean cry
We look to Our sons and daughters To explain our lives
As if a child can tell us why That as sure as the sun rise As sure as the sea As sure as the wind in the trees
We rise again In the faces of our children We rise again In the voices of our song We rise again In the waves out on the ocean And then we rise again
When the light goes dark With the forces of creation In a stormy sky
We look to reincarnation To explain our lives As if a child could tell us why As sure as the sun rise As sure as the sea As sure as the wind in the trees
We rise again In the faces of our children We rise again In the voices of our song We rise again In the waves out on the ocean And then we rise again
We rise again In the faces of our children We rise again In the voices of our song We rise again In the waves out on the ocean And then we rise And then we rise again
