Till We Reach That Day Lyrics

[COALHOUSE, spoken]
No!

[MOURNERS]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

[SARAH'S FRIEND]
There's a day of hope
May I live to see
When our hearts are happy
And our souls are free
Let the new day dawn
Oh, Lord, I pray
We'll never get to heaven
Till we reach that day

[MOURNERS, SARAH'S FRIEND]
It's a day of peace (Mmm)
A day of pride (A day of pride)
A day of justice (Oh)
We have been denied (It's been denied)
When a man can live
And a child can play (Ooh)
We'll never get to heaven
Till we reach that day

[COALHOUSE]
What they did to her
What they took from her
She had life in her
Lord, she had my baby
Look what they left of her
Left of her, left of my girl

[EMMA GOLDMAN]
She was nothing to them
She was a woman

[COALHOUSE]
My girl

[MOTHER]
Nothing and no one to them

[EMMA GOLDMAN, MOTHER & COALHOUSE]
So they beat her
And beat her and beat her and—

[MOURNERS]
A day of peace

[COALHOUSE]
There was blood on the ground

[MOURNERS]
A day of pride

[COALHOUSE, EMMA GOLDMAN & MOTHER]
She was only a girl

[MOURNERS]
A day of justice

[COALHOUSE, EMMA, YOUNGER BROTHER, MOTHER & FATHER]
It will happen again

[MOURNERS]
We have been denied

[ENSEMBLE]
It will happen again and again and again

[MOURNERS]
Let the new day dawn
Oh, Lord—

[TATEH]
Why does nobody care?

[YOUNGER BROTHER & EMMA GOLDMAN]
There is blood in the air

[WOMEN]
We have voices and souls

[COALHOUSE, MOTHER, EMMA GOLDMAN & YOUNGER BROTHER]
What is wrong with this country?

[IMMIGRANTS]
She was somebody's child

[HARLEM MEN]
There are Negroes out there

[IMMIGRANTS, BLACKS, WOMEN & EMMA GOLDMAN]
There are people out there

[ALL]
Give the people
A day of peace
A day of pride
A day of justice
We have been denied
Let the new day dawn
Oh, Lord, I pray
We'll never get to heaven
Till we reach that day
