Campfires lit and preachers roared
Hearts were stirred and spirits soared
Revivals rose in burning ground
Sin was called and grace was found
Charles Finney led the prayer
Soul can change was preached everywhere
Faith got loud and took the street
Changed the laws with steady feet
Temperance cried for sober lives
Asylums built where hope survives
Second wave of soul and voice
Called for people to make a choice
From saving souls to righting wrong
The movement built where hearts belong
Dix fought hard for mental care
Dorothea changed what happened there
Garrison's press and Walker's plea
Raised the call to set folks free
Women met at Seneca's stand
Truth and Stanton took command
Reform spread with fire and pen
Reviving rights denied to them
Second wave of soul and voice
Called for people to make a choice
From saving souls to righting wrong
The movement built where hearts belong
Faith and change went hand in hand
Justice rose across the land
Not all won, but steps were made
In every march, a truth relayed
A sermon sparked what law would shape
And pushed the nation to awake.
