Lift Every Voice and Sing, sung by Steven Simpson
for Juneteenth, 2024
Songwriter: James Weldon Johnson, 1900
Music: J. Rosamond Johnson, 1900
Lift every voice and sing,
'Til earth and heaven ring,
Ring with the harmonies of Liberty;
Let our rejoicing rise
High as the listening skies,
Let it resound loud as the rolling sea.
Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us,
Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us;
Facing the rising sun of our new day begun,
Let us march on 'til victory is won.
