Gentle Angry People

• Words & Music: Holly Near
• Arranged by: Jane Schonveld

We are a gen­tle angry people
And we are singing, singing for our lives (×2)

We are young and old together …
We are gay and straight together …
We are a jus­tice-seek­ing people …
We are young and old together …
We are a land of many colours …
We are weavers of new visions …
