I will lift my hands (while I still can) – sing and clap my hands
Standing hand in hand – brothers and sisters – praying like a clergyman
Testify while I still can
Ain’t no guarantee we’ll always have the liberty
To be who we were called to be, so let’s not waste what’s free
It only takes one quick look around to see those who would drown the sound
And move our movement underground – believe me, they’re inbound
What’s your evidence of any permanent residents
among our band of aliens? Beware this arrogance
One quick second look to see what ground the devil took
It’s in the world’s best-selling book – the landlord is a crook
I will work while it is day – night comes to steal work away
Count my blessings one by one, starting with this rising sun
