True Liberty

How ‘bout a taste of freedom?
A glimmer of real peace
A little trip to Eden
I’ll take my ticket please

The words of Edwin Markham
Run through my mind
No ticket for me if I
Leave my brother behind

Hey Hey! Hey Hey! Hey Hey! Hey Hey!

We can build a castle
With a wall of stone
People out there hungry
I guess they’re on their own

We make believe it ain’t so
But our worlds are tied
I can’t climb any higher
With no one at my side

There is no true liberty for
The individual
Except as he finds it in
The liberty of all

And no true security for
The individual
Except as he finds it in
The security of all

When someone’s under
Another’s thumb
Chained to each other
They do become

If I hold a man down
Gotta stay down too
How ‘bout we lift each other
What would Jesus do?

There is no true liberty for
The individual
Except as he finds it in
The liberty of all

And no true security for
The individual
Except as he finds it in
The security of all

There is no true liberty for
The individual
Except as he finds it in
The liberty of all

And no true security for
The individual
Except as he finds it in
The security of all
