VERSE 1
One has been my favorite number,
One is not a lonely number
For the hermit here inside of me.
But soon the cave gets dreary,
And I can hear them clearly,
Inviting me to join the song.
CHORUS
And when we come together,
Each person counts, and whether
We're sad or joyful,
Each one is made more hopeful
When we're together.
VERSE 2
This is where the healing happens,
In the midst of tears and laughter.
This is where our lives are made whole.
I've been transformed by hunger,
To find my strength in numbers.
Together we can live as one.
CHORUS
BRIDGE
We need time alone in our room,
But when it becomes a tomb
We can arise and be made new together.
Arise, together, be made new, together,
CHORUS
CODA
Arise together,
Be made new, together
Arise together,
Be made new, together, together.
