Today We Will Stand

Community Resilience |Earth and Soul |Love and Friendship

This song was written for my choir SongTribe to accompany text written by Hannah Lavery, Edinburgh’s former Makker (Poet) to celebrate 900 years of St Giles Cathedral. The idea behind the song is about standing up with and lifting our communities to be an example of kindness and compassion.

Mood

Defiant, anthemic, proud

Technical

SATB song with a little intro/outro of the word Today repeated. Can also be sung between repeats of the song and/or as a gentle backing for spoken text

Text Source

Alison Burns inspired by Hannah Lavery.

Lyrics

Today we will stand, we will stand like a forest
Today we will sing, we will sing with a beating heart
And today we will hold, we will hold out a candle
Today we will be the one
