This really has nothing to do with ancestors it is a song I wrote for the inaugural  day for the Wanneroo Joondalup womens choir .

MAKE IT CHANGE

When I find a friend, who is in trouble

words then like wisdom come to me

Echo through my mind, to leave it be

And so, I close my eyes and move on

Till new words they come again

Come on be a friend, make it change

 

Make a change Give a smile

Be a friend Lend a hand

make it change make it change

2

And when I see the lonely people

Living down the street from me

It Echoes through my mind, leave it be

And so, I close my mind and move on

Till new words they come again

Reach out to your neighbour, make it change

 

Make a change Give a smile

Be a friend Lend a hand

make it change, Make a change

3

When I am feeling lonely and

I think nobody cares for me

I hear my friends all singing make it change

Change poverty of friendship

Into one of living harmony

For I hear us singing make it change

Change your self

Change your street

Change your town

Change the world

Make it change

Make it change  

4

I know there is a place to be

it’s me with you and you with me

and so, we join in singing

make a change

with helping hands and stepping out

the world will know what were about

for we will make a difference

make a change  

Change your self

Change your street

Change your town

Change the world

Make it change

Make it change

 this was sung to the tune Hallelujah by T Cohen from Shrek 

it can also be sung to Let it be by the Beatles. The day I wrote this I heard Let it be, sung as the 1st song on a world wide fund raising festival for famine, and I thought No you should not let it be you need to change it!
