Hand On My Heart

[Intro]
Dhulapally
Are you ready? (hey!)
Ward 14
Are you ready? (hey!)
One voice
One choice

[Verse 1]
From the first light on the street
To the dust on my feet
I’ve walked every lane
I’ve heard every name
Of the promises that never came

You said “brother
Stand with us”
So I left the party bus
I’m standing in the sun
Just a simple son
But I won’t ever run

[Chorus]
Hand on my heart
I’m with you
Not in some distant room
Field and homes
Every part
Your hope is my start
Hand on my heart
I’m with you
We can tear the old walls through
Write my name on your chart
Hand on my heart
Hand on my heart

[Verse 2]
No big posters in the sky
Just your stories in my mind
Water lines running dry
Kids with books
No time
We can’t wait for another sign

Call my name from every door
I’m your neighbor
Nothing more
Give me just one chance
For this ward to advance
We’ll be stronger than before

[Chorus]
Hand on my heart
I’m with you
Not in some distant room
Field and homes
Every part
Your hope is my start
Hand on my heart
I’m with you
We can tear the old walls through
Write my name on your chart
Hand on my heart
Hand on my heart

[Bridge]
Independent
But not alone (hey!)
You’re the power
You’re the throne
Say my name
Make it loud
Ward 14
Lift the crowd

[Chorus]
Hand on my heart
I’m with you
Not in some distant room
Field and homes
Every part
Your hope is my start
Hand on my heart
I’m with you
We can tear the old walls through
Write my name on your chart
Hand on my heart
Hand on my heart (hey!)
Hand on my heart
Hand on my heart
