P. 27
WE SHALL OVERCOME
We shall overcome, we shall overcome,
We shall overcome some day.
For deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome some day.
We are not afraid, we are not afraid;
We are not afraid today.
For deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome some day.
The truth shall make us free,
The truth shall make us free;
The truth shall make us free some day.
For deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome some day.
We shall live in peace, we shall live in peace,
We shall live in peace, some day.
For deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome some day.
LIBERATION
The world stands in need of liberation, my Lord,
It still has to feel Your power
The blind and the deaf, the dumb and the maimed,
All need to feel Your healing touch;
The world stands…chorus
1 There are those who have eyes but refuse to see,
The inhumanity to men;
There are those who have ears, but refuse to hear,
The cries of those in agony
2 There are those who have mouths, but refuse to speak
Against injustice done to men
There are those who have hands, but refuse to reach
Them out in love and brotherhood.
3 There are those who have talents, they do not use
To build a true community.
And we know that we all have the talent to love
But leave it buried in ourselves.
