We have Overcome
Out of the dust;
Out of the pit of the ashes;
We have overcome.
Out of the valley;
Out of the shadows of darkness;
We have overcome.
Out from oppression;
From the hand of the enemy;
We have overcome.
We have risen,
We have fallen,
We have risen again.
We rise above the oppressors,
Out from the hand of tyranny.
We rise and we stand,
Hand in hand,
United in victory.
Victory that we have risen,
Victory that we ave won;
Victory that we have overcome.
