Lyrics
Go out and tell our story
Let it echo far and wide
Make them hear you
Make them hear you
How justice was our battle and how Justice was denied
Make them hear you
Make them hear you
And say to those who blame us, for the way we chose to fight
That sometimes there are battles that are more than black or white
And I could not put down my sword when justice, was my right
Make them hear you
Go out and tell our story to your daughters and your sons
Make them hear you
Make them hear you
And tell them in our struggle we were not the only ones
Make them hear you
Make them hear you
Your sword can be a sermon, or the power of the pen
Teach every child to raise his voice and then my brothers then
Will justice be demanded by ten million righteous men
Make them hear you
When they hear you
I'll be near you
Again
Writer(s): Lynn Ahrens, Stephen Charles Flaherty
