[00:01.59]	One day when the glory comes
[00:06.18]	It will be ours, it will be ours
[00:14.13]	One day when the war is won
[00:17.59]	We will be sure, we will be sure
[00:23.40]	Oh glory
[00:31.56]
[00:37.00]	Hands to the Heavens, no man, no weapon
[00:38.83]	Formed against, yes glory is destined
[00:41.63]	Every day women and men become legends
[00:44.41]	Sins that go against our skin become blessings
[00:47.92]	The movement is a rhythm to us
[00:49.95]	Freedom is like religion to us
[00:53.06]	Justice is juxtapositionin' us
[00:55.72]	Justice for all just ain't specific enough
[00:58.59]	One son died, his spirit is revisitin' us
[01:01.45]	Truant livin' livin' in us, resistance is us
[01:03.17]	That's why Rosa sat on the bus
[01:05.06]	That's why we walk through Ferguson with our hands up
[01:09.17]	When it go down we woman and man up
[01:13.15]	They say, “Stay down”, and we stand up
[01:16.08]	Shots, we on the grown, the camera panned up
[01:18.96]	King pointed to the mountain top and we ran up
[01:21.55]
[01:23.06]	One day when the glory comes
[01:27.07]	It will be ours, it will be ours
[01:33.45]	One day when the war is won
[01:39.39]	We will be sure, we will be sure
[01:44.29]	Oh glory
[01:47.75]
[01:56.17]	Now the war is not over, victory isn't won
[02:02.09]	And we'll fight on to the finish, then when it's all done
[02:08.16]	We'll cry glory, oh glory
[02:19.57]	We'll cry glory, oh glory
[02:28.40]
[02:32.89]	Selma's now for every man, woman and child
[02:34.05]	Even Jesus got his crown in front of a crowd
[02:36.83]	They marched with the torch, we gon' run with it now
[02:39.73]	Never look back, we done gone hundreds of miles
[02:42.65]	From dark roads he rose, to become a hero
[02:45.83]	Facin' the league of justice, his power was the people
[02:50.82]	Enemy is lethal, a king became regal
[02:51.84]	Saw the face of Jim Crow under a bald eagle
[02:54.55]	The biggest weapon is to stay peaceful
[03:00.78]	We sing, our music is the cuts that we bleed through
[03:02.07]	Somewhere in the dream we had an epiphany
[03:03.54]	Now we right the wrongs in history
[03:06.04]	No one can win the war individually
[03:08.61]	It takes the wisdom of the elders and young people's energy
[03:11.73]	Welcome to the story we call victory
[03:15.02]	Comin' of the Lord, my eyes have seen the glory
[03:18.10]
[03:19.22]	One day when the glory comes
[03:22.69]	It will be ours, it will be ours
[03:27.96]	One day when the war is won
[03:35.18]	We will be sure, we will be sure
[03:39.73]	Oh glory
[03:42.69]
[04:03.65]	When the war is done, when it's all said and done
[04:15.15]	We'll cry glory, oh glory
[04:18.56]

[00:01.59]	One day when the glory comes
[00:06.18]	It will be ours, it will be ours
[00:14.13]	One day when the war is won

[00:23.40]	Oh glory
