Story Behind The Song
This song was written during the height of the Syrian refugee crisis. A song to inspire people to step forward and help. I am the child of parents who were sponsored to come to North America for education. A couple sponsored my mother to come from Zimbabwe for her college education. They put her thru school, lived with her during the summers, and gave her away at my parents wedding. Without that couple who sponsored my parents - I wouldn't exist. I see the parallels between my story and the potential for people to impact Syrian families the same way.

Lyrics
Verse 1
People running
They're chasing a dream
That's worth it
Their striving for all that lies ahead
But doubt fear obstacles stop them
They're scared, tired
Want to give up
They just needs someone who cares
Pre-chorus
So say a word
Share a thought
One moment of time
Offer your strength
Lend your hand
Help them to climb
Cause everyone needs some hope
At the end of their rope
Chorus
Help them to fly
Reach to the sky
Fly high
Verse 2
Pages turning
As stories are written
Chapters unfolding
A future you've made bright
Dreams that
Once seemed impossible
Now are coming to life
And it's all because you cared
Pre-chorus & chorus
Bridge
What, What would our world be now
Without, Hope for tomorrow
Do you doubt
You're the one whose needed now
Cause Now,
Now is the time to take your place
The world is waiting
Don't delay
Don't you wait, Don't you wait
Interlude
Pre-Chorus 2
So say a word
Share a thought
A moment of your time
Offer your strength
Lend us your hand
So we all can climb
Cause when you needed hope
At the end of your rope
Chorus 2
Who helped you fly
Reach for the sky
Fly high
Soar through the sky
Look at us fly
Fly high
