Shelter

We all need love and shelter
A place where we let go and rest
To live secure with one another
To be ourselves, not somebody else

Everybody needs respect and dignity
Everybody needs love, real love

We all need to know we're worthy
That we are treasure to our core
We can tell the truth about our trauma
To be believed so we can be restored

Everybody needs respect and dignity
Everybody needs love, real love
Real love, real love

Everybody needs love, everybody knows love
Is what it takes to make a life
So everybody breathe love, everyone receive love
It's how we heal and make things right

We all need confirmation
To know that we are seen and heard
To live our lives out in freedom
Then all our flags of hope can be unfurled

Everybody needs respect and dignity
Everybody needs love, real love
Real love, real love, real love
Real love, real love, real love

We all need a place to shelter...
