Let Freedom Ring

In the heat of the battle
 To the head army there stepped a man
 He said,? I've been to the top of the liberty
 And I've looked over the promised land?
 He had no fear of death or evil
 His skin was black and his name was King
 He said I may not get there with you
 But put your faith in God and let freedom ring
 There was a tyrant strong and mighty
 And he built his self a wall
 He said,? This wall's gonna stand forever
 No power on Earth is gonna make it fall?
 But then the winds of change they started blowing
 Like a free bird on the wing
 And then the wall fell down with a sound like thunder
 Let the free bird fly and let freedom ring
 
 (Let freedom ring)
 Throughout the northland out across the frozen Tundra
 To the land of the midnight sun and the Eskimo
 (Let freedom ring)
 From Albuquerque across the sea to Greece and Turkey
 And from Halifax down south to Mexico
 (Let freedom ring)
 From Carolina round the world to Indochina
 From Seattle to Mobile and Abilene
 (Let freedom ring)
 Let freedom ring
 (Let freedom ring)
 Let freedom ring
 Let it ring, let it ring, let it ring
 Innocent blood was shed for freedom
 In a faraway place called Tiennemen Square
 'Cause the heavy hand of cruel oppression
 Is so much more than a man can bear
 But you can't chain a man forever
 And your guns they don't mean a thing
 'Cause they'll rise again in the cause of justice
 Give the power to the people and let freedom ring
 (Let freedom ring)
 From Minnesota across the plains to North Dakota
 And from Kennebunkport out to Kalamazoo
 (Let freedom ring)
 From Rome to Reno and from Tokyo to Moscow
 And from Barcelona, Spain to Kathmandu
 (Let freedom ring)
 From Madagascar and from Berlin to Alaska
 And from Liverpool to Perth to Aberdeen
 (Let freedom ring)
 Let freedom ring
 (Let freedom ring)
 Let freedom ring
 Let it ring, let it ring, let it ring
 Let's give thanks to God our Father
 The author of our liberty
 Gave us this land to protect and cherish
 It's the home of the brave and it's the land of the free
 Oh America, we love you
 Sweet land of hope of thee we sing
 And with our life's blood we will protect you
 Let the eagle fly and let freedom ring
 Let freedom ring
 Let freedom ring
 Let freedom ring
 Let it ring, let it ring
 Let it ring, let it ring
 Let freedom ring
