Lift Every Voice And Sing Lyrics - America America - Bebe Winans

Lift every voice and sing, till earth and Heaven ring 

Ring with the harmonies of liberty; 

Let our rejoicing rise, high as the listening skies 

Let it resound loud as the rolling sea 

Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught 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 chastening rod 

Felt in the days when hope unborn had died; 

Yet with a steady beat, have not our weary feet 

Come to the place for which 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 bright star is cast

God of our weary years, God of our silent tears 

Thou Who hast brought us thus far on the way; 

Thou Who hast by Thy might, led us into the light 

Keep us forever in the path, we pray 

Lest our feet stray from the places, our God, where we met Thee 

Lest our hearts, drunk with the wine of the world, we forget Thee 

Shadowed beneath Thy hand, may we forever stand 

True to our God, true to our native land
