The song ends with a powerful call to action: “the love you feel inside is what you bring to the world, feel it now… within.”
The music is ethereal with a hypnotic beat, featuring Mary Gospe’s heartfelt and angelic lead vocals, Corrie Dunn’s gorgeous harmonies, James Butler’s warm bass and David Scheibner’s atmospheric synth.

Mary Gospe’s lyric weaves in art references and metaphors to showcase the beauty and uniqueness of each of us, and that despite our differences, we can live together peacefully…
Like colorful pieces in the mosaic of life
We’re each unique shapes reflecting love and light
In an infinite mural painted on a sea of glass
We can live peacefully in a harmony of contrast
Mary Gospe’s lead vocals dance across the grooving bass line as Corrie Dunn adds her beautiful, soulful harmonies on the bridge and choruses. Words by Mary Gospe; Music by Mary Gospe and David Scheibner, produced and mixed by David Scheibner.

The song’s empowering chant is sung in Farsi, Spanish and English by Mary Gospe.
Women around the world unite
Stand up for all to see
Celebrate our diversity
Divine femininity
Corrie Dunn is stunning on lead vocals as she sings “empower the people with freedom, to rise above life’s adversities” and “the future is in our hands now, a world with gender equality.”
The song ends with a powerful round with both Corrie and Mary singing the bridge, chant and chorus.

Written as a response to the chaos of 2020, Mary Gospe’s “Warrior of Light,” (recorded by The Song Gardeners and produced by David Scheibner) offers a message of love and affirmation. Even as our lives have been “rearranged,” Mary’s angelic voice is a salve to our hurt lives. Instead of feeling we are victims, she shares an inspiring mantra that we can be the change, peacefully: “Activate the love inside, be a warrior of light.”
Gospe lets her inner rebel show through as she questions the news narrative and motives behind those who seek control. But, this is not a song about hate or anger.

This is an uplifting song that invites the listener to remember we all have the strength and power inside of us to invoke positive change based on love, not fear.
