Mother Emanuel |
| Oh Mama, mother Emanuel |
| You taught your children well |
| To Love instead of Hate |
| They did not discriminate |
| Standing strong against the gates of hell |
| Oh Mama, mother Emanuel |
| Oh Mama, mother Emanuel |
| You taught your children well |
| To color of their skin just can’t change the soul within |
| Loves a place where hate can never dwell |
| Oh Mama, mother Emanuel |
| Emanuel |
| (Emanuel, Emanuel) |
| Mother Emanuel |
| (Mother Emanuel) |
| Lord with us, hallelujah |
| (Lord with us) |
| Lord will never fail |
| Oh mama, mother Emanuel |
| (Mother Emanuel) |
| Sorry I won’t embrace, a stranger grace |
| You shed a better way, and you taught him how to pray |
| (You taught him how to pray) |
| Oh, oh, if there’s a sacred place, he met love face to face |
| Oh but he pulled the gun and change the world |
| (Changed the world) |
| For everyone |
| (Obama: Cynthia Hurd, Susie Jackson, Ethel Lance., DePayne Middleton-Doctor, |
| Tywanda Sanders, Daniel L. Simmons, Sharonda Coleman-Singleton, |
| Myra Thompson…) |
| Oh Mama, mother Emanuel, you taught your children well |
| (taught them well) |
| A highway to live with courage |
| (With Courage, truth for keep) |
| Truth for keep, caring to believe that love will always prevail |
| (Love prevails) |
| Oh, Oh Mama |
| (mother Emanuel) |
| Oh, Mama, mama, mother Emanuel |
| (mother Emanuel) |
| Oh Yes, love is always with us |
| Thank you for your forgiving spirit |
