Chorus
Help the world and never stop
Make everyone know you’re here to help
Let’s gather around
Let’s gather around
Verse
We’re gathering around
Cause we wanna make sound
Make difference in our world
It starts with you and me first
We’re gathering ‘round
Because we never give up
We wanna help our whole city
Be change and wake up
Ohhh
Be change and wake up
We wanna help our city
Be change and wake up
Ohhh
Be change and wake up
I see a family of people
Be change and wake up

About the Book
Amanda Gorman reads inauguration poem, ‘The Hill We Climb’
Change Sings
Written by Amanda Gorman
Illustrated by Loren Long
In this stirring, much-anticipated picture book by inaugural Youth Poet Laureate and activist Amanda Gorman, anything is possible when our voices join together. As a young girl leads a cast of characters on a musical journey, they learn that they have the power to make changes—big or small—in the world, in their communities, and in most importantly, in themselves.
Change Sings is brought to life by #1 New York Times bestselling illustrator Loren Long, the artist behind Barack Obama’s children’s book Of Thee I Sing: A Letter to My Daughters. Written as a children’s anthem, Gorman’s book reminds the newest generation that they have the power to shape the word with their actions and voices.
