I remember that Monday morning
|
When I was subpoenaed to be in court
|
|
Many things ran through my mind
|
I started thinking about the people
|
All day long, trying to think of something to say to the people
|
|
Are you ready for the question?
|
All in favour, let it be known by standing on you feet
|
|
I want young men and young women, who are not alive today
|
But who will come into this world, with new preivleges
|
And new oppurtunities
|
I wnat them to know and see that these new priveleges and oppurtunities
|
Did not come without somebody suffering and sacrificing for
|
|
Freedom is never given to anybody
|
|
Like anybody
|
I would like to live a long life
|
Longevity has its place
|
But i'm not concerned about that now
|
I just want to do God' will
|
And he has allowed me to go up to the mountian
|
And I've looked over
|
And I've seen the promise land
|
I may not get there with you
|
But I want you to know tonight
|
That we as a people
|
Will get to the promise land
|
So I'm happy tonight, I'm not worried about anything
|
I'm not fearing any man
|
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord
|
|
Glory Hallelujah, Glory Hallelujah
|
Glory Hallelujah, Glory Hallelujah
|
His tuth is marching on
|
