Stand Up! - John McCutcheon

Let us tell again the stories

Of the ones who set this world aflame

The ones who rose tall, the great and the small

America remembers their names

We saw a world of new horizons

We saw a world of hearts and hands

Each joined in the fight, the power and might

Were gathered from across this land (to)

Stand up for our family

Stand up

Stand up for America

Stand up

We got to stand

We are the ones who answer

When America calls out her name

Together we come, united as one

We rise again and again

We are the ones who labor

We are the ones who care

We are the ones, the daughters and sons

We are the ones who dare (to)

Come and feel a new world rising

Come and heed a brand new call

It echoes our past and it’s coming on fast

Reaching out to one and all

From our parents to our children

All across this mighty land

As the future draws near, our vision is clear

Side by side and hand in hand (we're gonna)

We stand for good jobs, fight for good wages, we are the ones (Stand up!)

For health and safety, speaking one strong voice, we are the ones (Stand up!)

We are the dreamers, we are the long haul, we are the ones (Stand up!)

We are the neighbors, we are the family, we are the ones (Stand up!)

We are the workers, we are America, we are the ones (Stand up!)

We are the future, we are the Union, we are the ones (Stand up!)
