lyrics

Lyrics

Step by step we’re on our way
Step by step we’re on our way toward a new day
Do not fret all the small things
Do not let go of all your hopes and dreams
C’mon now and let me hear you sing

We will overcome
We can all be one
We will overcome
Together

Step by step me and all my friends are takin’ a stand
Step by step we know that we can
We’re rising above, believing in new sights
We’re rising for love, standing together to make this right
C’mon now with me sing

We will overcome
We can all be one
We will overcome
Together

Step by step we’re leaving behind all this fright
Step by step we’re on our way into the light
We can overcome all this war and those greedy hands
We will overcome and restore peace throughout the lands
C’mon now and sing together

We will overcome
We can all be one
We will overcome
Together

Sometimes we all face trouble
Sometimes there’s no avoiding struggle
In dark nights we have the light of the moon
To guiding us into the dawn of a new day

We will overcome
We can all be one
We will overcome
Together
