Mistress of the Free

Verse 1

Mistress of the free

Shall we ever

see you as before

Guiding in the lost and cold

onto our eastern shore

 

May we ever

see your torch again

Or shall your light

be snuffed away by ruling men

By those who changed what you had been

into a threat

into a fear

for all who dared to hold you dear

 

Chorus

And we made of you

a beacon to

the hopeless and the poor

We lit your torch so all could see

the hope beyond our door

And though you held it oh so high

a symbol of the free

They turned your torch into a sword

for all the world to see

 

Verse 2

Lady Liberty

Shall your people

let their voices soar

Turning back their rulers course

away from endless war

 

Shall your people

cast their lot with you

Or shall we fail

and let the madness start anew

The madness of the ruling few

So those who rule

so those who war

may cower at your peoples roar

 

Chorus

And we made of you

a beacon to

the hopeless and the poor

We lit your torch so all could see

the hope beyond our door

And though you held it oh so high

a symbol of the free

They turned your torch into a sword

for all the world to see
