⢠⢠⢠⢠One day
when the glory comes
It will be ours
It will be ours
Ohh, one day
when the war is won
We will be sure
We will be sure
Ohh, glory, ohh
Hands to the Heavens
no man, no weapon
Formed against
yes glory is destined
Every day women and
men become legends
Sins that go against our
skin become blessings
The movement is
a rhythm to us
Freedom is like
religion to us
Justice is
juxtapositionin' us
Justice for all just
ain't specific enough
One son died
his spirit is revisitin' us
True and livin'
livin' in us
resistance is us
That's why Rosa
sat on the bus
That's why we walk
through Ferguson
with our hands up
When it go down we
woman and man up
They say stay down
and we stand up
Shots, we on the ground
the camera panned up
King pointed to
the mountain top
and we ran up
One day
when the glory comes
It will be ours
It will be ours
Ohh, one day
when the war is won
We will be sure
We will be sure
Ohh, glory, ohh
Now the war
is not over
victory isn't won
But we'll fight on
to the finish
and when it's all done
We'll cry glory
Oh glory, ohh
We'll cry glory
Oh glory, ohh
Selma is now for
every man
woman and child
Even Jesus got his crown
in front of a crowd
They marched with
the torch
we gon' run with it now
Never look back
we done gone
hundreds of miles
From dark roads he rose
to become a hero
Facin' the league
of justice
his power was the people
Enemy is lethal
a king became regal
Saw the face of Jim Crow
under a bald eagle
The biggest weapon
is to stay peaceful
We sing, our music is the
cuts that we bleed through
Somewhere in the dream
we had an epiphany
Now we right the
wrongs in history
No one can win the
war individually
It takes the wisdom
of the elders and
young people's energy
Welcome to the story
we call victory
The comin' of the Lord
my eyes have seen
the glory
One day
when the glory comes
It will be ours
It will be ours
Ohh, one day
when the war is won
We will be sure
We will be sure
Ohh, glory, ohh
Ohh, glory
Hey, yeah
When the war is won
When it's all said
and done
We'll cry glory
Oh
glory
