Brother Martin was walkin with me,
Em                     B7
And every step I heard liberty
C                        G         Em

Keep on walkin and we shall be free

Across the ocean, the blood's running warm
Em                            B7
I, I hear it coming, there's a thunderin' storm
C                          G              Em
Just like we lived it, you know that it's true,

In our land, not so long ago,
Em                      B7
We lived the struggle, and that's how we know
C                         G         Em
Slavery abolished, comin' freedom's call

That's how we're gonna make history 


G                        B7
Oh, bread for the body, there's got to be
Em                       B7
But a soul will die without liberty
C                         G           Em
Pray for the day when the struggle is past!
A                              D
Freedom for all! Free at last! Free at last!
