LYRICS HERE
Chorus
The earth is our home
The earth is our mother
We all come from water
Water is life
The earth is the place
To live, learn, and breathe
Change begins today
In our community
Verse
I can do a lot of things
Especially with my water
I can help with anything
The earth is our provider
We stand together as a mighty lion
We’re saving those who need a hand for helpin’

About the Book
We are Water Protectors
Written by Carole Lindstrom
Illustrated by Michaela Goade
Inspired by the many Indigenous-led movements across North America, We Are Water Protectors issues an urgent rallying cry to safeguard the Earth’s water from harm and corruption—a bold and lyrical picture book written by Carole Lindstrom and vibrantly illustrated by Michaela Goade.
Water is the first medicine.
It affects and connects us all . . .
When a black snake threatens to destroy the Earth
And poison her people’s water, one young water protector
Takes a stand to defend Earth’s most sacred resource.
