Don't worry mother  It'll be alright  And don't worry sister  Say your prayers and sleep tight  And it'll be fine  Lover of mine  It'll be just fine And lend your voices only  To sounds of freedom  No longer lend your strength  To that which you wish  To be free from  Fill your lives  With love and bravery  And you shall lead  A life uncommon I've heard your anguish  I've heard your hearts cry out  We are tired, we are weary  But we aren't worn out  Set down your chains  Until only faith remains  Set down your chains And lend your voices only  To sounds of freedom  No longer lend your strength  To that which you wish  To be free from  Fill your lives  With love and bravery  And we shall lead  A life uncommon There are plenty of people  Who pray for peace  But if praying were enough  It would've come to be  Let your words enslave no one  And the heavens will hush themselves  To hear our voices ring our clear  With sounds of freedom  Sounds of freedom Come on you unbelievers  Move out of the way  There is a new army coming  And we are armed with faith  To live, we must give  To live And lend our voices only  To sounds of freedom  No longer lend our strength  To that which we wish  To be free from  Fill your lives  With love and bravery  And we shall lead... And lend our voices only  To sounds of freedom  No longer lend our strength  To that which we wish  To be free from  Fill your lives  With love and bravery  And we shall lead  A life uncommon
