We shall overcome, we shall overcome,
The Lord will see us through, The Lord will see us through,
The Lord will see us through someday;
We're on to victory, we're on to victory,
We're on to victory someday;
We're on to victory someday.
We'll walk hand in hand, we'll walk hand in hand,
We'll walk hand in hand someday;
We'll walk hand in hand someday.
We are not afraid, we are not afraid,
We are not afraid today;
We are not afraid today.
The truth shall make us free, the truth shall make us free,
The truth shall make us free someday;
The truth shall make us free someday.
We shall live in peace, we shall live in peace,
We shall live in peace someday;
We shall live in peace someday.
We shall overcome someday.
Oh, deep in my heart, I do believe,
