BELOVED

To call myself beloved

To feel myself beloved on the Earth

BEING AWAKE

Set the clock of your heart, set the clock of your heart

Breathe in the dawn, breathe in the dawn

Raise high the calice of your life, taste the joy, the joy of being awake

It’s the best medicine of all, being awake

Efik language from Nigeria and the border of Cameroon
This is how we do it – a Challenge Song – create your own harmonies, dances, games!

LET ME BELIEVE THAT LOVE IS POSSIBLE

Let me believe that love is possible
Let me remember the courage in my soul

I wil raise my voice for justice

Let me remember the courage in my soul

I’ve got two feet to march with
I’ve got one mouth to sing with
I’ve got two ears to listen
I’ve got one heart to love with

Listen, listen, listen, listen

I will never give up, never give up, never give up!
