Verse 1
G
C
G
When
D
Moses had finished
G
the leadership
from Egypt to the banks of Jordan,
C
God called him on the mountaintop
G
and showed him the promised land.
D
G
Moses died, the people mourned.
D
The mourning ended,
G
but the memories lived on
in their hearts.
Em
B
To every citizen of the United States,
Em
and to every nation of the world,
A
regardless of race, creed, or color,
D
we've had a great loss,
A
the loss of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Yes, we've had a loss,
D
but heaven has gained.
C
For Dr. King was truly an instrument
D
of God's peace in a confused world.
G
Em
For where there was hatred,
D
he sowed love.
C
Where there was injury, pardon.
G
Where there was doubt, faith.
Where there was despair, hope.
C
Where there was darkness, light.
B
Em
And where there was sadness, joy.
Dr. King lived, and died for
C
what he believed.
D
And as he said, and I quote,
Em
if any man doesn't have
something
that he loved well enough to die for,
A
Am
D
then he is not fit to live.
So let us strive to bring into reality
G
the things he saw
from the mountaintop
C
looking through the telescope of time
G
and now a divine master
grant
D
that we may not so much seek to
G
be consoled as to console
C
to be understood as to understand
G
to be loved as to love
D
G
for it is in giving that we receive
and it is in pardoning that we are
C
pardoned
G
and it is in dying that we are born
to eternal life.
Sleep on, Dr. King,
for your work is finished here,
but one day when gables sound the
Em
trumpet
B
and the dead in Christ shall rise,
Em
we'll all blend our voices together
and sing the beautiful song
A
we have overcome.
D
And as we yet live and struggle
through an unfriendly word
Am
D
this shall be our testimony
G
if I can have somebody as
C
Adim
I travel this way
C
G
D
Em
A
Then my living shall not
D
C
G
Am
G
be in vain.
