I Want To Be Strong

Thanks very much to Micki Pagan, who e-mailed this song to me!

Chorus:

Oh I want to be strong,

To be, strong as the land around me,

I want a heart that's as wide as the sky

I want a spirit like a moving mountain stream,

I want to look people, straight in the eye.

Walking along beneath a canopy of clouds.

Feeling like a stranger in the midst of a crowd.

I know that something great is calling me out loud.

I know that I must choose.

I know that in this world there's hunger and there's hate.

But if we care it's not too late.

A loving, laughing world, we'll be able to create.

Underneath the endless sky.
