When you march stand up straight. When you fill the world with hate Step in time with your kind and Let it ring When you speak against me Would you bring your family Say it loud pass it down and Let it ring Let it ring to Jesus 'cause he sure'd be proud of you You made fear an institution and it got the best of you Let it ring in the name of the one that set you free Let it ring As I wander through this valley In the shadow of my doubting I will not be discounted So let it ring You can cite the need for wars Call us infidels or whores Either way we'll be your neighbor So let it ring Let it ring In the name of the man that set you free Let it ring And the strife will make me stronger As my maker leads me onward I'll be marching in that number So let it ring I'm gonna let it ring to Jesus Cause I know he loves me too And I get down on my knees and I pray the same as you Let it ring, let it ring 'Cause one day we'll all be free
