[Verse 1]
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 going to stand forever
No power on Earth is going to 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
[Pre-Chorus]
(Let freedom ring)
Throughout the north-land 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
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 going to stand forever
No power on Earth is going to 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
[Pre-Chorus]
(Let freedom ring)
Throughout the north-land 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
