Dee Daniels - Let Freedom Ring (The Ballad of John Lewis) Lyrics

While my time here has now come to an end I want you to know,
That in the last days and hours, of my life, you inspired me.
You filled me with hope, about the next chapter, of the great, American story
When you used your power, to make a difference, in our society.
Now it's your turn to let, freedom ring
Come together all people of the world in the name of love
Now it's your turn to let, freedom ring
Come together, lift up one another
Now it's your turn, to let freedom ring

(SPOKEN WORD by JOHN LEWIS)
We all live in the same house, and it doesn't matter whether we're Black or White,
Latino, Asian American, or Native American. It doesn't matter whether we are Straight or
Gay. We are one people. We are on family. We all live in the same house.
Be bold. Be courageous. Stand up. Speak up. Speak out and find a way to create the
Beloved community, the beloved world. A world of peace. A world that will recognize the
Dignity of all humankind.

So I say to you, walk with the wind, brothers and sisters, and let the spirit of peace
And the power of everlasting love be your guide.
Now it's your turn to let, freedom ring
Come together all people of the world in the name of love
Now it's your turn to let, freedom ring
Come together, in peace forever
Let it ring, let it ring, now it's your turn, to let freedom ring
Let it ring, let freedom ring, let it ring, let freedom ring
Let it ring, let it ring, let freedom ring
