Freedom's Star

I'm gonna tie my hope to freedom's star

I'm gonna spread the word both near and far

Stand tall, young man, hold your head up high

The gift of freedom you cannot buy

Hold tight, my brother, to freedom's star

In a world so full of doubt and fear

Every man must guard his rights so dear

Listen to what's said and know what it means

To hold those things so pure and so clean

In our freedom's eyes, a man's a man

If he's yellow, black, or white, or tan

Our people must believe and must lead the way

To show the world we mean what we say

I'm gonna tie my hope to freedom's star

I'm gonna spread the word both near and far

Stand tall, young man, hold your head up high

The gift of freedom you cannot buy

Hold tight, my brother, to freedom's star

Liberty's weight is a heavy load

Takes a strong man's heart to tote that load

To decide for himself and to speak out loud

To be his own makes a man so proud

I'm gonna tie my hope to freedom's star

I'm gonna spread the word both near and far

Stand tall, young man, hold your head up high

The gift of freedom you cannot buy

Hold tight, my brother, to freedom's star
