Oh, let us turn our thoughts today to Martin Luther King
And recognize that there are ties between us
All men and women, living on the earth
Ties of hope and love, sister and brotherhood
That we are bound together
In our desire to see the world become
A place in which our children can grow free and strong
We are bound together by the task that stands before us
And the road that lies ahead, we are bound
...and we are bound
There is a feeling like the clenching of the fist
There is a hunger in the center of the chest
There is a passage through the darkness and the mist
Though the body sleeps the heart will never rest
(Shed a little light oh Lord) Shed a little light oh Lord
(So that we can see) Ohh now
(Just a little light ohh Lord) Just a little light oh Lord
(Gonna stand it on up) Stand it on up
(Stand it up ohh Lord) Get down
(Gonna walk it on down) Gonna shed a little
(Shed a little light ohh Lord)
(Can't get no light from another day) Don't see me no light, in another day
(Don't give me no light from the TV screen) No No No No
(When I open my eyes, I want to drink my fill)
(From the well on the hill)
Then you know where I'll be
(Shed a little light ohh Lord) Shed a little light oh Lord
(So that we can see) Ahh yes
(Just a little light ohh
lord) Just a little light oh Lord
(We're gonna stand it on up) Stand it on up
(Stand it up ohh Lord, Stand it up ohh Lord)
(Gonna walk it on down) Gonna shed a little
(Shed a little light ohh Lord)
There is a feeling like the clenching of the fist
There is a hunger in the center of the chest
There is a passage through the darkness and the mist
Though the body sleeps the heart will never rest
Let us turn our thoughts today to Martin Luther King
And recognize that there are ties between us
All men and women, living on the earth
Ties of hope and love, sister and brotherhood
