Rise Again
© Leon Dubinsky
Raylene Rankin sang this in the 1985 Rise and Follies of Cape Breton.

1
When the waves roll on over the water
And the ocean cries
We look to our sons and daughters
To explain our lives
As if a child could tell us why.
 
Chorus
That as sure as the sunrise
As sure as the sea
As sure as the wind in the trees
We rise again in the faces of our children
We rise again in the voices of our song
We rise again in the waves out on the ocean
And then we rise again
 
2
When the light goes dark with the forces of creation
Across a stormy sky
We look to reincarnation to explain our lives
As if a child could tell us why
 
(Chorus)
 
3
We rise again in the faces of our children
We rise again in the voices of our song
We rise again in the waves out on the ocean
And then we rise again
And then we rise again.
