I got the lyrics for this song...I think they are accurate. I thought I would pass them on.
Thanks
I Have A Dream
Bebe Winans
Five score years ago
A great American signed and proclaimed you know
The emancipation that brought a beacon light of hope
To plenty of slaves who had been seared called Negro
A flame of injustice and now a hundred years have passed
And now today we must face the true tragic fact
The Negro is still not free and though impossible it seems
I have a dream
The Constitution reads and gives the promise that all men be guaranteed
The pursuit of happiness, right of life and liberty,
That check of independence for cash and decree
But it is obvious America's at fault - fallen on its promises gave citizens of all
And now we must demand our right to be free
'cause I have a dream
I have a dream
A dream that one day
Black boys and black girls will join hands
White boys and girls then will stand sisters and brothers
Yes I have a dream
A dream that one day
Mountains and hills will be made low
And all the world is told the crooked's been made straight
hmm, 'till this glorious scene, I have a dream
To overlook the urgency, it would be fatal to deny equality
The autumn of freedom, the year 1963
But a beginning, not the end of what will be
But there is something I must say to my people
Who sit on the threshold into the palace where we go
We must not be guilty of violence and wrong deeds
'Cause I have a dream
I have a dream
A dream that one day
This nation will rise up and see the truth of this creed and equal all men will be
Yes I have a dream
A dream that one day
With a new meaning, we will sing "My country 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty"
ooh, Freedom will ring, will ring
'Cause I have a dream
(speech excerpt)
I have a dream
A dream that one day
Black boys and black girls will join hands
White boys and girls then will stand sisters and brothers
Yes I have a dream
A dream that one day
Mountains and hills will be made low
And all the world is told the crooked's been made straight
hmm, 'till this glorious scene, I have a dream
Freedom will ring
'Cause I have a dream
Through impossible it seems
Hmm, I have a dream
