Justice Rolls Like a River

in the quiet of the morning light we gather around holding on tight saw a child with empty hands dreams slipping like grains of sands streets alive with silent cries option cries option worn by endless lies escort locked behind their doors hoping for what life restores but the weight pulls heavy down till we rise and claim our ground oh let justice roll like a river wide wash away the chains we hide hand in hand we'll stand as one underneath the burning sun hearts on fire voices clear so justice drawing near no more shadows no more fear we'll build the world we hold so dear the tender voices tell the tale of promise promise that always fail young ones march with fervent grace painting hope on everything face broken systems yearning for what makes us whole souls from the fields to lose we answer it's freedom's sacred cause in the stillness feel the spark ignite the dark every story every pain becomes the strength to break the chain we're the roots that run so deep the harvest that our children keep oh let justice roll like a river wide wash away the chains we hide hand in hand we'll stand as one underneath the burning sun hearts on fire voices clear so justice drawing near no more shadows no more fear we'll build the world we hold so dear we'll build the world we hold so dear in the quiet of the evening glow we'll keep walking letting justice grow hand in hand forever more justice ringing shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline shoreline
