Tekst piosenki 'Lift Every Voice And Sing' wykonawcy Kim Weston

Lift every voice and sing
Till earth and heaven ring
Ring with the harm-o-nies 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 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 died
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 has 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 forgot Thee
Shadowed beneath Thy hand, may we forever stand
True to our God, true to our native land
