I remember that Monday morning When I was subpoenaed to be in court Many things ran through my mind I started thinking about the people All day long, trying to think Of something to say to the people Are you ready for the question? All in favor, let it be known by standing on you feet I want young men and young women Who are not alive today But who will come into this world With new privileges and new opportunities I want them to know and see That these new privileges and opportunities Did not come without somebody Suffering and sacrificing for Freedom is never given to anybody Like anybody, I would like to live a long life Longevity has its place But I'm not concerned about that now I just want to do God' will And He has allowed me To go up to the mountain And I've looked over And I've seen the promise land I may not get there with you But I want you to know tonight That we as a people Will get to the promise land So I'm happy tonight I'm not worried about anything I'm not fearing any man Mine eyes have seen the glory Of the coming of the Lord Glory Hallelujah, glory Hallelujah Glory Hallelujah, glory Hallelujah
