Free At Last

FREE AT LAST...Tribute To Dr. Martin Luther King

oh, Dr. Martin...At last free, but am I, FREE AT LAST
Will you follow me;FREE AT LAST
oh, excuse me pardon..Will you drink at the same fountain, FREE AT LAST
as JESUS, Gandhi, Martin;
oh, Dr. Martin...What about civil disobedience;
Free you never saw Apartheid end;
Non-violent and equality;
At last are we free;
oh, Dr. Martin...Free.. to walk the streets together, FREE AT LAST
ALL RACES CREEDS and COLORS, FREE AT LAST
FREE... to OPEN MY Mouth not afraid, FREE AT LAST
To say I LOVE YOU MY White brother;
oh, Dr. Martin...Free... to stand before my peers speak;
to say I LOVE YOU MY BLACK brother;
Freed from my fore father's vison, FREE AT LAST
of forever bondage and imprisons, FREE AT LAST
oh, Dr. Martin...Free to know we're all of the same rainbow;
And God has promised us all, FREE AT LAST
Free to look at our faces;
Long enough to embrace in love;
And to realize we are all part of the same human race;
oh, excuse me pardon..Free  to breathe the air
Free to care, love, share, FREE AT LAST
within this free blessed to see our first ..
Colored, Black, *****, Black, African American
oh, excuse me pardon. Freedom means equality
FOR ALL HUMANITY, FREE AT LAST
oh, Dr. Martin...Free to know we're all of the same rainbow;
Free thanks be to God, FREE AT LAST
Free to live life long, FREE AT LAST
Thank you Dr. Reverend Martin Luther King Jr.
For doing God's duties...
In the abundant of heaven you still remind us..that
In Christ through God WE ARE ALL
FREE at LAST
FREE at LAST
Thank God all mighty we're
FREE AT LAST
