Lyrics
DON'T LET IT STOP YOU by Linda Storey copyright 2003
Well you lost your job then you lose your car,
lose a friend you don't know where you are.
Radios calling, sirens are squalling,
buildings in New York City are falling.
CHORUS
Don't let it stop you, don't let it stop you.
Don't let it stop you, don't let it stop you.
Hold on to your dreams though mountains fall.
Go over or under or through it all.
We've been here before it's a factor of life.
The spirit is strong and it's ready to fight.
CHORUS
Our hearts are sad they want to cry.
Our country's in mourning, our brothers have died.
God gives your guidance, give us your love.
Give us your spirit to rise above.
Blessed is a man that perseveres.
Love is hopeful despite all our fears.
CHORUS
It's time to move on and help again.
Whatever it takes our country will mend.
There's fire in our eyes and the soul never dies.
Don't ever give up on the will to survive.
CHORUS
