My People...Hold On - Eddie Kendricks

People the time has come, in this land

When lion must, lay down with the lamb

Brothers and sisters, live side by side

Hold on to love, let its light be your guide

My people!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

The lord god said, love me one another

Who ever does the will of the father, is my brother

The hawk must fall, let the dove fly high

Hold on to love, let its light be your guide

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

My people!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

In peace, let us trust

Before we turn to ashes and dust

Let us all stand together

I realize our hearts are tried

I can see the struggle in your eyes

My people!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!

My people hold on!
