Plant the Hope

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Morning settles on the hills Kigali wakes beneath the clouds A page waits open by the window For the words she couldn't say aloud [Verse 2] Tea beside the worn-out Bible Her pen moves slowly, line by line She writes the hurt, she names the hope And gives tomorrow room to shine [Pre-Chorus] You are more than what you've carried More than yesterday's refrain Every honest word can open A small door through the rain [Chorus] Speak with courage, speak with kindness Let your words become a seed In the homes and hills of Rwanda Plant the hope a heart may need When the road is steep before you When you doubt the strength you hold Say the truth that lifts another And watch young hearts grow bold [Verse 3] Two young hands across a table Learning how to hear, not win Respect becomes a daily promise Where a gentler life begins [Bridge] Sisters, keep becoming Even when the climb is slow Faith can live in simple choices In the care we choose to show From the city to the farthest valley Let compassion travel far One brave voice can start a story One kind word can change a heart [Final Chorus] Speak with courage, speak with kindness Let your words become a seed In the homes and hills of Rwanda Plant the hope a heart may need When the road is steep before you Remember what you hold Say the truth that lifts a generation And watch young hearts grow bold [Outro] Write it down, and keep on walking Hope is growing as you go
