We Shall Overcome Lyrics

We shall overcome
We shall overcome
We shall overcome, some day
Oh, deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome, some day
We'll walk hand in hand
We'll walk hand in hand
We'll walk hand in hand, some day
Oh, deep in my heart
We shall live in peace
We shall live in peace
We shall live in peace, some day
Oh, deep in my heart
We shall all be free
We shall all be free
We shall all be free, some day
Oh, deep in my heart
We are not afraid
We are not afraid
We are not afraid, TODAY
Oh, deep in my heart
We shall overcome
We shall overcome
We shall overcome, some day
Oh, deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome, some day
