In This Together

It Took A Virus To Make Us Come Home
Back To Ourselves
Back To Our Homes
Inside We Stay Passing Each Day
The Best Way We Can
Every Child, Woman And Man
Discovering And Recovering Our Talents And Skills
Playing Games, Making Crafts, Dancing, Singing, Having A Laugh
With Our Loved Ones And Friends Both Near And Far
Is Doing Our Bit
Playing Our Part
In These Troubled Times
For Lives Are At Stake
Make No Mistake
We Don’t See The Fuss, The Rush
That Our Frontline Medics
Are Making To Save Each One Of Us
Trying To Find The Gain Out Of The Pain They Are In
They Keep Showing Up
They Keep Working
Their Shoulders To The Wheel
They Have A True Calling
They Are Special One And All
All We Can Promise Them Is That We Will Be Here For Them In Their Hour Of Need
Helping To Keep Them Strong In Body, Mind, And Soul
As We All Answer Ireland’s Call
What’s Asked Of Us
May Seem So Small
Doing Your Bit
While Safe At Home
Is Reassurance To Them
That They Are Not
Doing This Alone
