How justice was our battle

For the way we chose to fight

That sometimes there are battles  
         G#         Bb       G  
That are more than black or white...

And I could not put down my sword

Your sword can be a sermon

Or the power of the pen.  
      C#m            G#m  
Teach every child to raise his voice  
     A        B         G#     B  
And then, my brothers, then

By ten million righteous men.
