Glory (From the Motion Picture "Selma") - Common & John Legend









The movie soundtrack : “Glory” by John Legend featuring Common
“Glory”



One day, when the glory comes

It will be ours, it will be ours

Oh, one day, when the war is won
We will be sure, we will be here sure
Oh, glory, glory



Oh, glory, glory



Hands to the Heavens, no man, no weapon
Formed against, yes glory is destined

Every day women and men become legends
Sins that go against our skin become blessings
The movement is a rhythm to us



Freedom is like religion to us

Justice is juxtaposition in us

Justice for all just ain’t specific enough

One son died, his spirit is revisitin’ us

True and living living in us, resistance is us

That’s why Rosa sat on the bus

That’s why we walked through Ferguson with our hands up
When it go down we woman and man up

They say, “Stay down” and we stand up

Shots, we on the ground, the camera panned up

King pointed to the mountain top and we ran up



One day, when the glory comes

It will be ours, it will be ours

Oh, one day, when the war is won
We will be sure, we will be here sure
Oh, glory, glory



Oh, glory, glory glory



Now the war is not over
Victory isn’t won

And we’ll fight on to the finish
Then when it’s all done

We’ll cry glory, oh glory

We’ll cry glory, oh glory



Selma is now for every man, woman and child

Even Jesus got his crown in front of a crowd

They marched with the torch, we gon’ run with it now
Never look back, we done gone hundreds of miles
From dark roads he rose, to become a hero

Facin’ the league of justice, his power was the people
Enemy is lethal, a king became regal

Saw the face of Jim Crow under a bald eagle

The biggest weapon is to stay peaceful

We sing, our music is the cuts that we bleed through



Somewhere in the dream we had an epiphany

Now we right the wrongs in history

No one can win the war individually

It takes the wisdom of the elders and young people’s energy
Welcome to the story we call victory



The coming of the Lord, my eyes have seen the glory



One day, when the glory comes

It will be ours, it will be ours

Oh, one day, when the war is won
We will be sure, we will be here sure
Oh, glory, glory



Oh, glory, glory glory



When the war is done, when it’s all said and done
We’ll cry glory, oh glory



“Glory” was written by Stephens, John Roger / Lynn, Lonnie
Rashid.
