Shine A Light(for the NSW North West) - Words and Music by Luke Vassella Copyright 2014

Core of my heart, my country
Like drums in my heart, an army
Power be to the peaceful
Strength be to the truthful
Wake up O sleeper, rise up O dreamer
Shine a light

Shine a light on the mining plan
Oh the stupidity of man
From Moree right across the Liverpool plains
Shine on the criminal corporate gains
And when they put you to the test
Shine on the NSW North West
Australia, it's time to rejoice
Shine a light, or lose your voice

Core of my heart, my country
Like drums in my heart, an army
Power be to the peaceful
Strength be to the truthful
Wake up O sleeper, rise up O dreamer
Shine a light

Shine a light for the struggling farmer
Who's gotta cope with the climate karma
Yes we're all gonna reap what we sow
For treating the earth like there's somewhere else to go
Shine a light on a merciless economy
Laying to waste the people and ecology
Shine on a culture of greed
Fuelled by addiction, not by need

Shine a light on Australia's dreaming
My country has wounds that need healing
