#1
\nTHE CIVIL RIGHTS NATIONAL ANTHEM <\/p>\n
Lift every voice and sing till earth and heaven ring
\nRing with the harmonies of liberty;
\nLet our rejoicings rise high as the Listening skies
\nLet it resound loud as the roaring sea.
\nSing a song; full of the faith that our dark past has taught us;
\nSing a song; full of the hope that the present has brought us;
\nFacing the rising sun; of a new day begun;
\nLet us march on till victory is won. <\/p>\n
#2
\nLOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO \u2018ROUND <\/p>\n
Love makes the world go \u2018round; love makes the world go \u2018round and\u2019 round;
\nSomebody soon will love you just as we love you now.
\nHigh in some starlit sky, love sings a silvery song
\nMaking the world twirl softly; love makes the world go \u2018round. <\/p>\n
#3
\nOH, FREEDOM! <\/p>\n
Oh, freedom; Oh, freedom; Oh, freedom over me.
\nAnd before I\u2019ll be a slave and be buried in my grave
\nI\u2019ll go on with you and be free. <\/p>\n
#4
\nI SHALL NOT BE MOVED<\/p>\n
I shall not, I shall not be moved; I shall not, I shall not be moved;
\nJust like a tree that\u2019s planted by the water; I shall not be moved. <\/p>\n
Black and white together; I shall not be moved;
\nBlack and white together; I shall not be moved;
\nJust like a tree that\u2019s planted by the water; I shall not be moved. <\/p>\n
Freedom forever; I shall not be moved;
\nFreedom forever; I shall not be moved;
\nJust like a tree that\u2019s planted by the water; I shall not be moved. <\/p>\n
Unity forever; we shall not be moved;
\nUnity forever; we shall not be moved;
\nJust like a tree that\u2019s planted by the water; we shall not be moved. <\/p>\n
#5
\nJOE HILL <\/p>\n
I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night alive as you or me.
\nSays I to Joe, \u201cYou\u2019re ten years dead\u201d;
\n\u201cI never died;\u201d said he; \u201cI never died,\u201d said he. <\/p>\n
\u201cThe copper bosses killed you, Joe, they shot you, Joe,\u201d says I;
\n\u201cTakes more than guns to kill a man, \u201c Says Joe,
\n\u201cI didn\u2019t die, \u201c; says Joe, \u201cI didn\u2019t die. \u201c <\/p>\n
And standing there as big as life and smiling with his eyes;
\nSays Joe, \u2018\u2018They can never kill, but on to organize; I went on to organize.\u201d <\/p>\n
From San Diego up to Main in every mine and mill
\nWhere working men defend their rights, it\u2019s there you\u2019ll find Joe Hill
\nIt\u2019s there you\u2019ll find Joe Hill. <\/p>\n
I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night alive as you or me;
\nSays I to Joe, \u2018\u2018You\u2019re ten years dead\u201d;
\n\u201cI never died,\u201d said he; \u201cI never died,\u201d said he. <\/p>\n
#6
\nSIXTEEN TONS <\/p>\n
Now some people say a man\u2019s made out of mud,
\nBut a poor man\u2019s made out of muscle and blood,
\nMuscle and blood, skin and bone,
\nA mind that\u2019s weak and a back that\u2019s strong. <\/p>\n
(Chorus;)
\nYou load sixteen tons and what do you get?
\nYou get another day older and deeper in debt.
\nSaint Peter, don\u2019t you call me \u2018cause I can\u2019t go.
\nl owe my soul to the company store. <\/p>\n
-2-
\nI was born fine morning when the sun didn\u2019t shine,
\nI picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
\nI loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal,
\nAnd the straw boss hollered, \u201cWell, bless my soul. \u201c <\/p>\n
-3- I was born one morning in the drizzling rain;
\nFighting and trouble is my middle name.
\nI was raised in the bottoms by a momma hound
\nI\u2019m mean as a dog but I\u2019m gentle as a lamb. <\/p>\n
-4-
\nIf you see me coming, you better step aside;
\nA lot of men didn\u2019t, and a lot of men died.
\nI got a fist of iron and a fist of steel,
\nIf the right one don\u2019t get you then the left one will. <\/p>\n
#7
\nA NATION IS RISING <\/p>\n
A nation is rising rich in the virtues of Americanism rebirthed by God.
\nRich in honesty, brotherhood and peace
\nWhere a man is a man and not a color, creed or race.
\nA people charged with a current of justice
\nThat will change the tide of governmental affairs
\nA righteous nation under God Almighty is rising
\nElectrifying the atmosphere! <\/p>\n
#8
\nBROTHERHOOD IS OUR RELIGION
\nBrotherhood is our religion; For democracy we stand;
\nWe love everybody; We need every hand.
\nIt\u2019s based on the constitution and it certainly is God\u2019s command;
\nThese are the rights we adore: Liberty, Fraternity, Equality for all
\nThese are the rights we stand for! <\/p>\n
#9
\nDEEP RIVER <\/p>\n
Deep river; my home is over Jordan;
\nDeep river; I want to cross over into the promised land. <\/p>\n
# 10
\nNEW BIRTH OF FREEDOM <\/p>\n
We have a new birth of freedom; freedom that no man can give.
\nWe have a new birth of freedom; that only love can give.
\nAbraham Lincoln spoke about it; but love has brought it about;
\nWe have a new birth of freedom; and it\u2019s under democratic love! <\/p>\n
#11
\nBLOWIN\u2019 IN THE WIND <\/p>\n
-1-
\nHow many roads must a man walk down before they call him a man?
\nHow many seas must a white dove sail before she sleeps in the sand?
\nHow many times must the cannon balls fly before they\u2019re forever banned?
\nThe answer, my friend, is blowing\u2019 in the wind;
\nThe answer is blowin\u2019 in the wind. <\/p>\n
-2-
\nHow many years must a mountain exist before it is washed to the sea?
\nHow many years can some people exist before they\u2019re allowed to be free? H
\now many times can a man turn his head and pretend that he just doesn\u2019t see?
\nThe answer, my friend, is blowin\u2019 in the wind;
\nThe answer is blowin\u2019 in the wind. <\/p>\n
-3-
\nHow many times must a man look up before he can see the sky?
\nHow many ears must one man have before he can hear people cry?
\nHow many deaths will it take till he knows that too many people have died?
\nThe answer, my friend, is blowin\u2019 in the wind;
\nThe answer is blowin\u2019 in the wind. <\/p>\n
#12
\nWE SHALL HAVE THE SAME RIGHTS <\/p>\n
We shall have the same rights; not only equal but the same;
\nSide by side we shall ride in the same car, bus or train.
\nWe shall play in the same parks and read our lessons in the very same schools;
\nThere shall be the very same rights for you, and you, and you. (Forever!)
\nWe shall have the same rights; we all shall dine face to face;
\nEternally there shall never be not a color, creed, or race;
\nWe shall live together and worship God in the same pew;
\nThere shall be the very same rights for you, and you, and you. <\/p>\n
#13
\nWE SHALL OVERCOME <\/p>\n
We shall overcome; we shall overcome; we shall overcome some day.
\nDeep in my heart I do believe, we shall overcome someday.
\nWe shall all be free; we shall all be free; we shall all be free some day.
\nDeep in my heart I do believe, we shall all be free some day.
\nWe shall all have peace; we shall all have peace; we shall have peace someday.
\nDeep in my heart I do believe, we shall all be free some day.
\nWe\u2019ll walk hand in hand; we\u2019ll walk hand in hand; we\u2019ll walk hand in hand someday.
\nDeep in my heart I do believe, we\u2019ll walk hand in hand someday.
\nWe shall live as one; we shall live as one; we shall live as one someday.
\nDeep in my heart I do believe, we shall live as one some day.
\nWe are not afraid; we are not afraid; we are not today.
\nDeep in my heart I do believe; we are not afraid today! <\/p>\n
#14
\nYOU\u2019LL NEVER WALK ALONE <\/p>\n
When you walk through a storm hold your head up high
\nAnd don\u2019t be afraid, of the dark
\nAt the end of the storm is a golden sky
\nAnd the sweet silver song of a lark
\nWalk on through the wind; walk on through the rain
\nThough your dreams be tossed and blown
\nWalk on; walk on; with hope in your heart
\nAnd you\u2019ll never walk alone; you\u2019ll never walk alone. <\/p>\n
#15
\nBORN FREE <\/p>\n
Born free; as free as the wind blows
\nAs free as the grass grows; born\u2019 free to follow your heart.
\nLive free and beauty surrounds you; the world still astounds you
\nEach time you look at a star.
\nStay free; let no walls divide you;
\nYou\u2019re free as the roaring tide so there\u2019s no need to hide.
\nBorn free; and life is worth living
\nBut only worth living if you\u2019re born free. <\/p>\n
#16
\nNO ONE IS AN ISLAND <\/p>\n
No one is an island; no one stands alone;
\nEach \u2018one\u2019s joy is joy to me; each one\u2019s grief is my own.
\nWe need one another so I will defend
\nEach one as my brother; each one as my friend. <\/p>\n
#17
\nGOING TO STUDY WAR NO MORE <\/p>\n
Goin\u2019 to lay down my sword and shield, down by too riverside,
\nDown by the riverside, down by the riverside.
\nGoin\u2019 to lay down my sword and shield, down by the riverside,
\nAnd study war not more. <\/p>\n
I ain\u2019t goin\u2019 to study war no more, I ain\u2019t goin\u2019 to study war no more,
\nI ain\u2019t goin\u2019 to study war no more, I ain\u2019t goin\u2019 to study war no more,
\nI ain\u2019t goin; to study war no more, I ain\u2019t goin\u2019 to study war no more. <\/p>\n
#18
\nGETTING TO KNOW YOU <\/p>\n
Getting to know you; getting to know all about you;
\nGetting to like you; getting to hope you like me.
\nHaven\u2019t you noticed suddenly I\u2019m free and easy
\nBecause of all those wonderful and new Things
\nI\u2019m learning about you day by day. <\/p>\n
#19
\nGIVE ME SOME MEN <\/p>\n
Give me some men who are stout-hearted men
\nWho will fight for the rights they adore.
\nStart me with ten who are stout-hearted men
\nAnd I\u2019ll soon give you ten-thousand more.
\nShoulder to shoulder and bolder and bolder
\nWe\u2019ll fight as we press to the fore.
\nThen there\u2019s nothing in this world can halt or mar our plans,
\nWhen stout-hearted men stick together man to man. <\/p>\n
#20
\nGLORY OF LOVE <\/p>\n
You\u2019ve got to give a little, take a little, and let your poor heart break a little,
\nThat\u2019s the story of, that\u2019s the glory of love.
\nYou\u2019ve got to laugh a little, cry a little, and let the clouds roll by a little,
\nThat\u2019s the story of, that\u2019s the glory of love.
\nAs long as there\u2019s a few of us, we\u2019ll face the world with all its charms
\nAnd when the world gets through with us, we\u2019ve got each other\u2019s arms.
\nYou\u2019ve got to win a little, lose a little, and sometimes have the blues a little;
\nThat\u2019s the story of, that\u2019s the glory of love. <\/p>\n
#21
\nGO DOWN, MOSES <\/p>\n
Go down, Moses, way down in Egypt\u2019s land
\nTell ole Pharaoh to let my people go. <\/p>\n
#22
\nI BELIEVE <\/p>\n
I believe for every drop of rain that falls a flower grows;
\nI believe that somewhere in the darkest night a candle glows;
\nI believe for everyone who goes astray someone will come to show the way;
\nI believe; I believe. <\/p>\n
I believe above the storm the smallest prayer will still be heard;
\nI believe that someone in the great somewhere hears every word;
\nEvery time I hear a newborn baby cry or touch a leaf or see the sky;
\nThen I know why I believe. <\/p>\n
#23
\nFREE AT LAST <\/p>\n
Free at last; Free at last; Thank God Almighty I\u2019m free at Last. <\/p>\n
#24
\nFREEDOM <\/p>\n
Freedom; Freedom; Freedom; Freedom; Freedom! <\/p>\n
#25
\nWHEN I STAND FOR TRUTH <\/p>\n
When I stand for truth I want you to move;
\nWhen I stand for truth I want you to move;
\nLet the works of my life and my actions day by day
\nBe acceptable in thy sight, 0 yes. <\/p>\n
When I march for peace I want you to move;
\nWhen I march for peace I want you to move;
\nLet the works of my life and my actions day by day
\nBe acceptable in thy sight, 0 yes. <\/p>\n
To help the hungry children I want you to move;
\nTo help the hungry children I want you to move;
\nLet the works of my Life and my actions day by day
\nBe acceptable in thy sight, 0 yes. <\/p>\n
#26
\nACCENTUATE THE POSITIVE
\nAccentuate the positive; eliminate the negative;
\nLatch on to the affirmative, and don\u2019t mess with \u201cMr. In-Between\u201d.
\nTo illustrate my last remark – Jonah in the whale, Noah in the ark
\nWhat did they do just when everything seemed so dark – so dark? <\/p>\n
#27
\nA MIGHTY FORTRESS IS OUR GOD <\/p>\n
-1-
\nA mighty fortress is our God, A Bulwark never failing;
\nOur helper he amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing;
\nFor still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe;
\nHis craft and power are great, and armed with cruel hate,
\nOn earth is not his equal. <\/p>\n
-2-
\nDid we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing;
\nWere not the right man on our side, the man of God\u2019s own choosing;
\nDost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is he.
\nAlmighty God is his name, from age to age the same,
\nAnd he must win the battle. <\/p>\n
-3-
\nAnd though this world, with devils filled, should threaten to undo us:
\nWe will not fear, for God hath willed his truth to triumph through us;
\nThe prince of darkness grim, we tremble not for him:
\nHis rage we can endure, for lo! his doom is sure,
\nOne little word shall fell him. <\/p>\n
-4-
\nThat word above all earthly powers, no thanks to them, abideth;
\nThe spirit and the gifts are our through him who with us sideth;
\nLet goods and kindred go, this mortal life also;
\nThe body they may kill: God\u2019s truth abideth still,
\nHis kingdom is forever. <\/p>\n
#28
\nBLEST BE THE TIE THAT BINDS <\/p>\n
-1-
\nBlest be the tie that binds our hearts in Christian love;
\nThe fellowship of kindred minds is like to that above. <\/p>\n
-2-
\nWe share our mutual woes, our mutual burdens bear,
\nAnd often for each other flows the sympathizing tear. <\/p>\n
-3-
\nFrom sorrow, toil, and pain, and sin, we shall be free;
\nAnd perfect love and friendship reign through all eternity. <\/p>\n
#29
\nTHE CHURCH\u2019S ONE FOUNDATION <\/p>\n
-1-
\nThe church\u2019s one foundation is the Father, our God;
\nShe is the new creation by water and the word;
\nFrom heaven he came and sought her to be his holy bride
\nWith his own love he bought her, and for her Life he died. <\/p>\n
-2-
\nElect from every nation, yet one o\u2019er all the earth,
\nHer charter of salvation one God, one faith, one birth;
\nOne holy name she blesses, partakes one holy food,
\nAnd to one hope she presses, with every grace endued. <\/p>\n
-3-
\n\u2018Mid toil and tribulation, and tumult of her war,
\nShe waits the consummation of peace forevermore;
\nTill with the vision glorious her longing eyes are blest,
\nAnd the great church victorious shall be the church at rest. <\/p>\n
#30
\nALL HAIL THE POWER <\/p>\n
-1-
\nAll hail the power of Jesus\u2019 name; let angels prostrate fall;
\nBring forth the royal diadem, and crown him God of all;
\nBring forth the royal diadem, and crown him God of all. <\/p>\n
-2-
\nLet every kindred, every tribe, on this terrestrial ball,
\nTo him all majesty ascribe, and crown him God of all;
\nTo him all majesty ascribe, and crown him God of all. <\/p>\n
#31
\nTHESE THINGS SHALL BE <\/p>\n
-1-
\nThese things shall be: a loftier race than e\u2019er the world hath known shall rise
\nWith flame of freedom in their souls; and light of knowledge in their eyes. <\/p>\n
-2-
\nNation with nation, land with land, in-armed shall Live as comrades free;
\nIn every heart and brain shall throb the pulse of one fraternity. <\/p>\n
-3-
\nNew arts shall bloom of loftier mold, and mightier music thrill the skies,
\nAnd every life shall be a song, when all the earth is paradise. <\/p>\n
#32
\nLEAD, KINDLY LIGHT <\/p>\n
Lead, kindly light, amid the encircling gloom,
\nLead thou me on; the night is dark, and I am far from home;
\nLead thou me on; keep thou my feet; I do not ask to see
\nThe distant scene \u2013 one step enough for me. <\/p>\n
I was not ever thus, nor prayed that thou shouldst lead me on;
\nI loved to choose and see my path; but now lead thou me on.
\nI loved the garish day, and, spite of fears,
\nPride ruled my will; remember not past years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
