Pete Seeger - The Power and the Glory lyrics

[Pete Seeger - The Power and the Glory lyrics]

Come and take a walk with me
Through this green and growing land
Walk through the meadows and the
Mountains and the sand
Walk through the valleys and the
Rivers and the plains
Walk through the sun and
Walk through the rain

Here is a land full of power and glory
Beauty that words cannot recall
Oh her power shall rest on
The strength of her freedom
Her glory shall rest on us all (on us all)

From Colorado, Kansas
And the Carolina's too
Virginia and Alaska, from the old to the new
Texas and Ohio and the California shore
Tell me, who could ask for more?
Yet she's only as rich as
The poorest of her poor
Only as free as the padlocked prison door
Only as strong as our love for this land
Only as tall as we stand

But our land is still troubled by
Men who have to hate
They twist away our freedom &
They twist away our fate
Fear is their weapon and treason is their cry
We can stop them if we try
