Deep In My Heart, I Do Believe
Deep in my heart, I do believe, we’ll walk hand in hand, we are not afraid, the whole wide world around, we shall overcome, someday.
Gospels at Heaven, a German gospel choir
“We Shall Overcome” was based on “I’ll Overcome Someday” by Charles Albert Tindley first published in 1900.
The lyrics recorded and popularized by Pete Seeger:
We shall overcome,
We shall overcome,
We shall overcome, some day.
Oh, deep in my heart,
I do believe
We shall overcome, some day.
We’ll walk hand in hand,
We’ll walk hand in hand,
We’ll walk hand in hand, some day.
Oh, deep in my heart,
I do believe
We shall overcome, some day.
We shall live in peace,
We shall live in peace,
We shall live in peace, some day.
Oh, deep in my heart,
I do believe
We shall overcome, some day.
We are not afraid,
We are not afraid,
We are not afraid, TODAY
Oh, deep in my heart,
I do believe
We shall overcome, some day.
The whole wide world around
The whole wide world around
The whole wide world around some day
Oh, deep in my heart,
I do believe
We shall overcome, some day.
The wondrous voice and soul of Mahalia Jackson.
This is my prayer for the world today.
Because deep in my heart, I do believe, we shall overcome, some day.
Amen!
Thanks.
