Time is here

You left your family behind,
you left your friends.
You wonder what life will be like here,
it’s all in your hands.
Strangers’ faces all around you -
make you feel so small,
and you hope there will be someone
watching over you.

Here, we are gathered here,
drawn from far and near.
Time is here.
You, you’ve come here to grow.
Plant your seed and know
it grows by love.
Friendship is like the sun,
like the rain,
makes every grain grow.
Here, life is what you’ll find,
here seeds of every kind
can grow and be your start,
your start of life.

I left my family behind,
I left my friends.
Wonder what life will be like here,
it’s all in my hands.
Strangers’ faces all around me -
make me feel so small,
and I hope there will be someone
watching over me.

Here, we are gathered here,
drawn from far and near.
Time is here.
We, we came here to grow.
Plant our seed and know
it grows by love.
Friendship is like the sun,
like the rain,
makes every grain grow.
Here, life is what you’ll find,
here seeds of every kind
can grow and be our start,
our start of life.

We left our families behind,
we left our friends.
Wondered what life would be like here,
it’s all in our hands.
Friendly faces all around us -
make us all feel well,
and we know that there is someone
watching over us.

Here, we are gathered here,
drawn from far and near.
Time is here.
We, we came here to grow.
Plant our seed and know
it grows by love.
Friendship is like the sun,
like the rain,
makes every grain grow.
Here, life is what you’ll find,
here seeds of every kind
can grow and be our start,
our start of life.
