Lift every voice and sing (James Weldon Johnson)

A special Easter "Song for You"--my way to try to do SOMEthing to share and help in any way I can in this crisis. This is "Lift Every Voice and Sing" by James Weldon Johnson, for my Great Aunt Kay and for anyone else who needs to hear a song about triumph over adversity.

Lift ev'ry voice and sing
'Til earth and heaven ring
Ring with the harmonies 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 'til victory is won

Johnson)
