Текст песни Lift Every Voice and Sing - The Joslin Grove Choral Society

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 seas

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

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
