Be smart be alert Do not hide the truth my friend Defend the truth until the end RW Dennen- Come my brothers and sisters   let us be basked in the sun of glory Be we the tears that fall   surrendered on cheeks that tell their tale Let slavery's master-yoke be broken   and cast away Come my brothers and sisters and so do join in our power's struggle   to lend a better day Come my brothers and sisters   may your shining soul be at rest Come be as neighbors no matter far away   let our colors merge one into one is one;     let racism fade away   and let rest us upon the immovable stone      of brotherhood; so powerful we are And so too awaits our resolve enlightened by our hearts of day Then tear that awful blind of ignorance and sing our song till all merge into one And laud that peace that will increase good tidings to us all Be that light until that sight when colors merge and BROTHERHOOD,   to never go away...

Bright light upon my brothers and sisters
Be smart be alert Do not hide the truth my friend Defend the truth until the end RW Dennen- Come my brothers and sisters   let us be basked in the sun of glory Be we the tears that fall   surrendered on cheeks that tell their tale Let slavery's master-yoke be broken   and cast away Come my brothers and sisters and so do join in our power's struggle   to lend a better day Come my brothers and sisters   may your shining soul be at rest Come be as neighbors no matter far away   let our colors merge one into one is one;     let racism fade away   and let rest us upon the immovable stone      of brotherhood; so powerful we are And so too awaits our resolve enlightened by our hearts of day Then tear that awful blind of ignorance and sing our song till all merge into one And laud that peace that will increase good tidings to us all Be that light until that sight when colors merge and BROTHERHOOD,   to never go away...
The movie "Selma" and that powerful music "Glory" inspired me to write this piece. I loved Martin for what he did for all colors on this planet earth
