Hearts Full of Victory

[Intro]
From the young to the old
From the quiet to the bold
From the broken to the blessed
We all beat in one chest
[Verse 1]
Kids on phones on a crowded train
Old men laughing in the evening rain
All our scars got a secret name
But we still show up
We still play the game
Mothers praying in a dark lit room
Fighters dancing through the smoke and fumes
Even when the world feels overdue
There’s a drum in our ribs saying “pull on through”
[Pre-Chorus]
From the wild to the calm
From the lion to the lamb
Every language
Every land
We’re all reaching for the same thing
[Chorus]
May our hearts remain full of victory
May our hands stay honest and free
From the edge of reason to the edge of faith
We rise
We rise anyway
From the saint
From the sinner
To the in-between
Every soul still searching for a dream
May our hearts remain full of victory
Full of victory and justice in our veins
[Verse 2]
I’ve seen hope in the midnight ward
Laugh lines carved where the pain once tore
Heard a joke in the courtroom halls
Even there
Someone answers when mercy calls
Street kid flipping that plastic coin
Queen in gold with the same old void
All our voices shaking
Out of tune
Still we’re humming at the same bright moon
[Pre-Chorus]
From the lost to the found
From the whisper to the shout
Every border that we’ve drawn
We can lay it on the ground
[Chorus]
May our hearts remain full of victory
May our hands stay honest and free
From the edge of reason to the edge of faith
We rise
We rise anyway
From the saint
From the sinner
To the in-between
Every soul still searching for a dream
May our hearts remain full of victory
Full of victory and justice in our veins
[Bridge]
From the insane to the sane
We’ve all walked through a little rain
You bleed red
I bleed the same
Call my name
I’ll break your chains (oh-oh)
From the normal to the strange
Every story can be changed
If we stand
If we stay
Side by side in the hardest days
[Breakdown]
[low vocal register] One world
One voice
One bruised
But burning choice
[whispered vocals] Hold on
Hold tight
We bend
We still don’t break tonight
[crescendo]
Oh
We don’t break tonight
[Chorus]
May our hearts remain full of victory
May our hands stay honest and free
From the edge of reason to the edge of faith
We rise
We rise anyway
From the saint
From the sinner
To the in-between
Every soul still searching for a dream
May our hearts remain full of victory
Full of victory and justice in our veins
[Chorus]
[Outro]
From the young to the old
Let the story be told
When our names all fade from history
May they say our hearts stayed full of victory

Anthemic global pop with big drums, choirs, and bright guitars. Verses start intimate over sparse piano and low synth pad, then build into huge, stadium-style choruses with layered gang vocals and claps. Middle section drops to a half-time feel with choir and toms, then final chorus explodes with extra harmonies and ad-libs. Male or female lead vocals with wide, open mix.
