At Last the Day Will Come
At last the day will come, my friend my friend,
At last the day will come-
The harbors will once more, fill up with love, not war,
At last the day will come-
From skies that once were dark, goodwill will now impart,
At last the day will come-
All across this land, my brothers will join hands,
At last the day will come-
From Dixie to DC, free speech will welcome thee,
At last the day will come-
Our zoos will open gates, all life will congregate,
At last the day will come-
The money that we earn, will not cause lives to burn,
At last the day will come-
Now sing it with me friends, your hourglass depends,
At last the day will come-
At last the day will come, my friend my friend,
At last the day will come-
….Inspired by Pete Seeger and Bob Dylan
