Let Freedom Ring |
In the heat of the battle |
To the head army there stepped a man |
He said, 'I've been to the top of the liberty |
And I’ve looked over the promised land' |
He had no fear of death or evil |
His skin was black and his name was King |
He said I may not get there with you |
But put your faith in God and let freedom ring |
There was a tyrant strong and mighty |
And he built his self a wall |
He said, 'This wall’s gonna stand forever |
No power on Earth is gonna make it fall' |
But then the winds of change they started blowing |
Like a free bird on the wing |
And then the wall fell down with a sound like thunder |
Let the free bird fly and let freedom ring |
(Let freedom ring) |
Throughout the northland out across the frozen Tundra |
To the land of the midnight sun and the Eskimo |
(Let freedom ring) |
From Albuquerque across the sea to Greece and Turkey |
And from Halifax down south to Mexico |
(Let freedom ring) |
From Carolina round the world to Indochina |
From Seattle to Mobile and Abilene |
(Let freedom ring) |
Let freedom ring |
(Let freedom ring) |
Let freedom ring |
Let it ring, let it ring, let it ring |
Innocent blood was shed for freedom |
In a faraway place called Tiennemen Square |
'Cause the heavy hand of cruel oppression |
Is so much more than a man can bear |
But you can’t chain a man forever |
And your guns they don’t mean a thing |
'Cause they’ll rise again in the cause of justice |
Give the power to the people and let freedom ring |
(Let freedom ring) |
From Minnesota across the plains to North Dakota |
And from Kennebunkport out to Kalamazoo |
(Let freedom ring) |
From Rome to Reno and from Tokyo to Moscow |
And from Barcelona, Spain to Kathmandu |
(Let freedom ring) |
From Madagascar and from Berlin to Alaska |
And from Liverpool to Perth to Aberdeen |
(Let freedom ring) |
Let freedom ring |
(Let freedom ring) |
Let freedom ring |
Let it ring, let it ring, let it ring |
Let’s give thanks to God our Father |
The author of our liberty |
Gave us this land to protect and cherish |
It’s the home of the brave and it’s the land of the free |
Oh America, we love you |
Sweet land of hope of thee we sing |
And with our life’s blood we will protect you |
Let the eagle fly and let freedom ring |
Let freedom ring |
Let freedom ring |
Let freedom ring |
Let it ring, let it ring |
Let it ring, let it ring |
Let freedom ring |
