(Lyrics) National Songs
Home
Whenever I am feeling low
I look around me and I know
There's a place that will stay within me
Wherever I may choose to go

I will always recall the city
Know every street and shore
Sail down the river which brings us life
Winding through my Singapore

Chorus:
This is home truly, where I know I must be
Where my dreams wait for me, where that river always flows
This is home surely, as my senses tell me
This is where I won't be alone, for this is where I know it's home


When there are troubles to go through
We'll find a way to start anew
There is comfort in the knowledge
That home's about its people too

So we'll build our dreams together
Just like we've done before
Just like the river which brings us life
There'll always be Singapore

(Chorus X 2)
For this is where I know it's home
For this is where I know I'm home

Together
Let us be together aspire to achieve
No matter what, no matter when, working hand in hand
Let us go the distance, reach for goals that shine
Creating our future, with everyone in mind

Chorus:
Together we make a difference, one voice, one destiny
We remain undivided, our hearts in harmony
Together we make a difference, our friends, our families
We will share a special dream, together we feel the Singapore heartbeat

Let us find in our strides, new strength to go on by
Nothing is ever easy, we have to hold on and strive
Let us never be afraid, if we have to change our ways
Through the years, we'll always stay, one in every way

(Chorus X 2)
We will share a special dream
Together we feel the Singapore heartbeat
Singapore heartbeat

Shine On Me
The moment when I was born
Into this world, into my home
I recall when I was young
Stars and Crescent shine on me

In my heart lies my homeland
I share this joy with my families and friends
Let our strength build on and on
Reaching out to the world

Chorus:
Stars and crescent shine on me
Make us more than what we can be
All our dreams come true
As we all grow stronger

Stars and Crescent shine on me
Turning our hopes, into reality
For we will always be
Shining as one

Let our hopes lead us afar
Into the world, to be the best
There’s so much to reach out for
Stars and Crescent shining on

In my heart lies my homeland
I share this joy with my families and friends
Stepping out into a New World
As we make our choices

Where I Belong
Morning comes around and ICan't wait to see my sunny islandIn its glorious greenery, whether rain or shine, it's still beautifulBright lights shine on the streets at nightGuiding me closer to homeTo a place where I'll be safe and warm, where I belong
Friends and families by my sideSeeing me through as I grow and learnEveryday's experience, bitter sweet or sourThey're still wonderfulAs they become precious memoriesThey'll be kept close to my heartAnd no matter where I am I will always know, where I belong
Chorus:Where I belong, where I keep my heart and soulWhere dreams come true for usWhere we walk together hand in hand towards a future so brightWhere I belong, where I keep my heart and soulWhere we're one big familyI want the whole world to know, I want to shout it out loudThat this is where I know I belong

We Will Get There
Remember the days, we set out together with faith?
Remember the times, so fine, when we thought that
Nothing could stand in our way?

Then things weren't the same, the life that we knew had to change
We've struggled through, the darkest storms
We thought we couldn't tame

Together we've tried, as we stood side by side
I knew we'd build a new world
A world of hope for ever after.

Chorus:
Deep in my heart I just know,
Right from the start, we will grow
Look where we are, we've come so far
And there's still a long, long way to go.

With all of my heart, I will care
I'll play my part, I will share
With family and friends, together we'll stand
And in the end, hand in hand
We will get there

So now we begin, working together to win
Believing in trust, it must
Be possible to overcome anything.

There's so much to do, there's so much we can contribute
By sharing just a little love
We will start again anew

So why don't we try?
If we stand side by side
I know we'll build a new world
A world of hope for ever after.
(Repeat Chorus)

A Place in My Heart
Verse 1:
It doesn't matter where I come from
It doesn't matter what I do
It doesn't matter what I believe in
It doesn't matter how tough it may be

Bridge:
It only matters we've come through together
Closer with every page we turn
It only matters we could make it better
Reaching out to the sky

Chorus:
You will always have A Place in My Heart
You will always be the Spark
Every smile we share every tear we've shed
There's nothing we can't overcome

You will always have A Place in My Heart
You will always be the Spark
If I'm lost and weary I'm not worried
I know You will always be there with open arms

Verse 2:
I'll always treasure those happy moments
I can remember all the songs
It doesn't matter I'm ordinary
It doesn't matter how different we are
Repeat Bridge & Chorus
