O
children, don't you weep, don't you moan
O children, don't you weep, don't you moan
We shall overcome some day
O children, don't you weep (don't you weep now)
O children, don't you weep, don't you moan
O children, don't you weep, don't you moan
We shall overcome some day
O children, don't you weep |

The wise man
built his house upon the rock
The foolish man built his house upon the sand |
Matthew
7:24-27 - Therefore whosoever
heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I
will liken him unto a wise man, which built his
house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and
the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat
upon that house; and it fell not: for it was
founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth
these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall
be likened unto a foolish man, which built his
house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and
the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat
upon that house; and it fell: and great was the
fall of it. |
But we shall
overcome some day
O children, don't you weep
O children, don't you weep, don't you moan
O children, don't you weep, don't you moan
We shall overcome some day
O children, don't you weep |
|
You run to the
rock to hide yourself
The rock lookin' hidin' place for itself |
Revelation
6:15-17 - And the kings of the
earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and
the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every
bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in
the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; And
said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and
hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the
throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the
great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be
able to stand? |
But we shall
overcome some day
O children, don't you weep (don't you weep)
O children, don't you weep, don't you moan
O children, don't you weep, don't you moan
We shall overcome some day
O children, don't you weep (don't you weep)
//instrumental break//
O children, don't you weep, don't you moan
O children, don't you weep, don't you moan
We shall overcome some day
O children, don't you weep |
