Hymn to Freedom



When every heart joins every heart and together yearns for liberty,
That's when we'll be free.
When every hand joins every hand and together molds our destiny,
That's when we'll be free.
Any hour any day, the time soon will come when men will live in dignity,
That's when we'll be free, we will be
When every man joins in our song and together singing harmony,
That's when we'll be free.

Dione Taylor

    1. I have a dream! ... that very probably will not come true.

    2. Thank you for the lyrics. Sharing this post on FaceBook. Very much needed presently. It's a slow dream. It might never happen. But better to sing about it than to speak and to act revenge and despair.
