You can cut down all the flowers
But you can't stop the spring.
And there's years that we'll lose
But there's days that we'll win.
You can't take our power
We rise up and sing.
For we hold the spark
Of hope in the dark.

We speak to the weak and the wary
To all people who seek a fair and free land.
It's true that the future seems scary
So we dare you to speak, we urge you to stand.

They want you to believe that it's pointless
There's no reason to act, you can't win the war.
But the fact is that we are not voiceless
We can change the world as we have many times before.

You can cut down all the flowers
But you can't stop the spring.
And there's years that we'll lose
But there's days that we'll win.
United in power
We rise up and sing.
Yes we hold the spark
Of hope in the dark.

With lies they have tried to divide us
For a people united they never can beat.
So for every right they've denied us
We will lead the charge that will end in their defeat.

They have sent armies to pound us
And yet we stand tall.
For all of their might,
Their empires fall.
Though their borders surround us,
We tear down their walls.
For we light the spark
Of hope in the dark.

We'll never surrender
And together we'll win
We stand in unity
For justice and liberty
Yes we are the spark
The hope in the dark.
Hope in the dark.
