Let us take our fellow man by the hand
We can all shout together, we have overcome
Our trail is all made up
This world is not our home
Let us take our fellow man by the hand
When we make it to the promised land
Make it to the promised land
Walk together, little children
If we walk together, little children
We don't ever have to worry
We gotta love one another
We're only passing through
When we make it to the promised land
If we walk together, little children
Make it to the promised land
Through this world of trouble
Of the terror by night
We can all be together, forever and ever
While we're travelin' through this land
We gotta love one another
Try to help him to understand
Try to help him to understand
Try to help him to understand
Make it to the promised land
We can all be together, forever and ever
Way beyond the blue
That waiteth in the noon-day hour
Try to help him to understand
Nor for the destruction
Make it to the promised land
If we walk together, little children
We can all be together, shakin' a hand
We can all be together, forever and ever
Our bible reads
We don't ever have to worry
That waiteth in the darkness
We can all be together, forever and ever
Through this world of trouble
When we make it to the promised land
(Sisters)
Make it to the promised land
Go on at a steady pace
When we make it to the promised land
We gotta love one another
Nor the arrow that flies by day
When the battle is fought, and the victory's won
When we make it to the promised land
Nor for the pestilence
When the storm flies and the wind blows
We can all be together, forever and ever
Through this world of trouble
When we make it to the promised land
Let us take our fellow man by the hand
We gotta love one another
Let us take our fellow man by the hand
Let us do the very best that we can
When we make it to the promised land
We'll talk to the Father and the Son
When we make it to the promised land
Thou shall not be afraid
(Little children)
Through this world of trouble
(Children)
We don't ever have to worry
We won't ever have to worry
We can all be together, forever and ever
