Lift your Voices
Poetry
People be not afraid
People be not distraught
Lift your voices
People walk upright
People talk straight
Lift your voices
People fight on
People be strong
Lift your voices
People unite
People don't stop loving
Lift your voices
People keep fighting
People be ready to
Lift your voices
Don't back down
Don't go back
you stand your ground
You take your stance
And lift your voices
lift your voices
lift your voices
Higher and higher
Higher and higher
Till you reached heaven
Lift your voices
Lift your hearts
Lift your free will
Lift your courage
Lift your strength
Lift your love
Lift your sons
And lift your daughters
Till we reached that Promise Land
;Lift your voices my people
