We shall overcome
We shall overcome
We shall overcome, some day

Oh, deep in my heart
I know that I do believe
We shall overcome, some day

We shall be alright
We shall be alright
We shall be alright, some day

Oh, deep in my heart
I know that I do believe
We shall overcome, some day

We shall live in peace
We shall live in peace
We shall live in peace, some day

Oh, deep in my heart
I know that I do believe
We shall overcome, some day

We are not afraid (oh Lord!)
Not afraid (oh Lord!)
Not afraid, today

Oh, deep in my heart
I know that I do believe
We shall overcome, some day

We shall overcome (oh Lord!)
(Oh Lord!) overcome
We shall overcome, some day

Oh, deep in my heart
I know that I do believe
We shall overcome, some day
