Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Lift every voice and sing Till earth and heaven ring Ring with the harmonies of liberty Let our rejoicing rise High as the listening skies Let it resound loud as the rolling sea Stony the road we trod Bitter the chastening rod Felt in the days when hope unborn had died Yet with a steady beat Have not our weary feet Come to the place for which our fathers sighed We have come over a way that with tears have been watered We have come, treading a path through the blood of the slaughtered Out from the gloomy past Till now we stand at last Where the white gleam of our bright star is cast God of our weary years God of our silent tears Thou who has brought us this far long on the way Thou who has by thy might Led us into the light Keep us forever in the path, we pray Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us Facing the rising sun of our new day, new day begun Let us march on till victory is won, it's won, is won.
