Hallelujah, Hallelujah
   Hallelujah, Hallelujah

You know democracy will fail
When leaders’ souls are up for sale
When money rules, the wealthy make the choices
When lies are told Instead of ↑facts
And senators refuse to ↑act
Where’s democracy if they don’t hear our voices?

   Lincoln said it
   Of the people
   By the people
   For the people.

We must stand strong,
We must persist
On voting rights, we must insist
Suppression means too many folks rejected
The vote belongs to you and me
Without it we cannot be free
Without it all we love is unprotected

   Where is government
   Of the people
   By the people
   For the people?

Maybe all will turn out well
Or are we at the gates of hell?
The Grannies see the challenge that’s before us.
It’s one for all, and all for ↑one
Defend our rights until we’ve ↑won
All candidates will hear this thunderous chorus

   Stand for government
   Of the people
   By the people
   For the people.

   Hallelujah, Lincoln knew it
   Join together, we’ll get through it
   Lincoln said it, Hallelujah
   Don’t forget it, Hallelujah
