Sign That Parchment!
Love is the force in our life course
That’s softly known and heard.
It speaks to our ear, crystal clear
And puts feeling into word.

Life is a work, a work in progress;
Mysterious and strange.
When things bind us, Spirit reminds us:
It’s time to make a change.

Sign! Sign that parchment!
Be a beacon of hope,
(Hope brings change!)
A catalyst for change!
Sign! Rise up and sign! Sign that parchment!
It may seem ahead of its time,
(It's time!)
But I know that I'm willing to change! (It's time to change!)

We do solemnly swear our independence;
And former ties, release.
We pledge our lives
And firmly rely on Providence for peace.

Rise and proclaim on this parchment,
Upon this sacred scroll.
Here on this line,
Our name, we sign these words from our soul.

Sign! Sign that parchment!
Be a beacon of hope,
(Be the Hope!)
A catalyst for change!
Sign!
(Rise up and shine!) Rise up and sign! Sign that parchment!
It may seem ahead of its time,
(Now is the time!)
But I know that I'm willing to change! (The time is ripe for change!)

Everyone rise up! (Everyone!)
Make your mark for freedom! (Freedom!)
Lead and light your way (Light your way!)
For The People to see! (See it clearly!)
Give it all you’ve got! (Give it all!)
Give everything for freedom! (Give it freely!)
Live your life today (Open to love!)
So the whole world is free! (We are free!)

Action speaks louder than words! (Feelings behind words!)
An eagle soars higher than all other birds! (Eagle, Spirit Bird!)
The time is at hand for The People to see (We The People see.)
The future is now!
And the whole world is free!
