Come friends, come friends. Come gather 'round For to sing, oh sing we joyfully! Let us sing about a better world Where different paths have been unfurled Of a land where freedom rings
From way up high on a mountain side One can see the wide world over From way up there it's plain to see Regardless of one's race or creed In our hearts we're all the same
Come sisters, brothers gather near For we've come to share our worries We fear what some folks have been saying About Latin Americans The truth's been misconstrued
There's all kinds of talk 'bout building a wall Down along the Southern border 'bout building a wall between me and you Lord, and if such nonsense should come true Then we'll have to knock it down
'Cause that idea won't fly so high As a wingless bird in a rock hard sky So, no siree, we won't comply We're going to stand our ground
To love thy neighbor as thyself Is a righteous law to live by But leaders sing a different song They break us up so they stay strong And ignorantly we're strung along Until we meet our doom
Yes, our leaders are so ripe with sin They feed us chants to rope us in But some day soon we'll find, my friends That we're penned against The Wall
Come friends, come friends. Come gather 'round For to sing, oh sing we joyfully! Let us sing about a better world Where different paths will soon unfurl Where no man's blood shall stain the soil Of a land where freedom rings
