lirik lagu james weldon johnson - lift every voice and sing
lift every voice and sing
till earth and
heaven ring
ring with the harmonies of
liberty;
let our rejoicing rise,
high as
the list’ning skies, let it resound loud as the
rolling sea
sing a song full of faith that the
dark past has tought us,
sing a song full of
the hope that the present has brought
us;
facing the rising sun of our new day
begun,
let us march on till victory is
won.
stony the road we trod,
bitter the
chast’ning rod,
felt in the day that hope
unborn had died;
yet with a steady
beat,
have not our weary feet,
come to the
place on witch our fathers sighed?
we have
come over a way that with tears has been
watered,
we have come, treading our path
through the blood of the slaughtered,
out from
the gloomy past, till now we stand at
last
where the white gleam of our star is
cast.
god of our weary years,
god of
our silent tears,
thou who has brought us thus
far on the way;
thou who has by thy
might,
led us into the light,
keep us
forever in the path, we pray
lest our feet
stray frm the places, our god, where we met
thee,
least our hearts, drunk with the wine of
the world, we forget thee,
shadowed beneath the
hand,
may we forever stand,
tru to our
god,
tru to our native land
