Do You Hear the People Sing?
Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes
Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Beyond the barricade
Is there a world you long to see?
Then join in the fight
That will give you the right to be free (refrain)
Will you give all you can give
So that our banner may advance
Some will fall & some will live
Will you stand up and take your chance?
The blood of the martyrs
Will water the meadows of France (refrain)

No Kings Here
[Chorus]
No Kings Here
Not in my America
No Kings Here
Not in my USA
Got no need for royalty
We believe in loyalty
To what we call democracy
No Kings Here
[Verse 1]
George Washington was president
Not just once but twice
And when they offered him a crown
They gave him this advice:
​​
[Chorus]
​
[Verse 2]
When Betsy Ross sewеd up the flag
She found one thing was truе
There was no room for purple
It was all Red, White, and Blue
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
We had a king once, years ago
Back in days of yore
He showed us what kings were like
So we showed him the door
[Chorus]

Only Peace in the Present
(sing each verse twice)
Only peace in the present
Will bring peace in the future
Only love right now can show us how
We are brothers and sisters
And we walk together
In a world that’s one
We take care of each other
There’s a world where our children
Can prosper and thrive
Where truth and justice
Keep hope alive
We don’t need your hatred
We don’t want your wars
We know love and kindness
Will open any door
Only peace in the present
Will bring peace in the future
Only love right now
Can show us how

The Star-Spangled Banner
O say can you see, by the dawn’s early light,
What so proudly we hail’d at the twilight’s last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight
O’er the ramparts we watch’d were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there,
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deep
Where the foe’s haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o’er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning’s first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream,
’Tis the star-spangled banner - O long may it wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore,
That the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion
A home and a Country should leave us no more?
Their blood has wash’d out their foul footstep’s pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave,
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
O thus be it ever when freemen shall stand
Between their lov’d home and the war’s desolation!
Blest with vict’ry and peace may the heav’n rescued land
Praise the power that hath made and preserv’d us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto - “In God is our trust,”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
If I Had a Hammer
If I had a hammer, I'd hammer out the morning (hammer in the evening)
I'd hammer out the evening, all over this land
I'd hammer out danger, I'd hammer out a woman
I'd hammer out love between my brothers and my sisters all over this land
If I had a bell, I'd ring it in the morning
I'd ring it in the evening, all over this land
I'd ring out danger, I'd ring out a warning
I'd ring out love between my brothers and my sisters all over this land
If I had a song, I'd sing it in the morning
I'd sing it in the evening, all over this land
I'd sing out danger, I'd sing out a warning
Sing out war, sing out love
I'd sing out love between my brothers and my sisters all over this land
Well, I got a hammer and I got a bell
And I got a song to sing all over this land
It's the "hammer" of justice, it's the "bell" of freedom
It's a song about love between my brothers and my sisters all over this land
No More Kings
(Hilde Ojibway)
No more kings (feel the power)
No more kings (this is the hour)
A world of peace where freedom rings
No More Kings!
We rise high (feel the power)
We rise high (this is the hour)
Hear our voices fill the sky
We rise high!!
We build anew (feel the power)
We build anew (this is the hour)
A world of freedom for me and you
We build anew!

Power and Glory
(chorus)
Here is a land full of power and glory
Beauty words can not recall
Oh her power shall rest on the strength of her freedom
Her glory shall rest on us all.....on us all
This Joy
This joy that I have, the world didn't give it to me (oh, oh, oh)
This joy that I have, the world didn't give it to me (don't you know that)
This joy that I have, the world didn't give it to me
ooh, I said, the world didn't give it, the world can't take it away

* This STRENGTH
* This LOVE
* This PRIDE
* This PEACE

Oh Mary, Don't You Weep
(chorus)
Oh Mary don't you weep don't you mourn
Oh Mary don't you weep don't you mourn
Pharaoh's army got drowned, Oh Mary, don't you weep!
Streets of Minneapolis
Through the winter's ice and cold, down Nicollet Avenue
A city aflame fought fire and ice 'neath an occupier's boots
King Trump's private army from the DHS, guns belted to their coats
Came to Minneapolis to enforce the law or so their story goes
Against smoke and rubber bullets, in the dawn's early light
Citizens stood for justice, their voices ringing through the night
And there were bloody footprints where mercy should have stood
And two dead left to die on snow-filled streets, Alex Pretti and Renee Good
Oh our Minneapolis, I hear your voice singing through the bloody mist
We'll take our stand for this land and the stranger in our midst
Here in our home they killed and roamed in the winter of '26
We'll remember the names of those who died on the streets of Minneapolis
Trump's federal thugs beat up on his face and his chest
Then we heard the gunshots and Alex Pretti lay in the snow dead
Their claim was self-defense, sir, just don't believe your eyes
It's our blood and bones and these whistles and phones against Miller and Noem's dirty lies
Oh our Minneapolis, I hear your voice crying through the bloody mist
We'll remember the names of those who died on the streets of Minneapolis
Now they say they're here to uphold the law but they trample on our rights
If your skin is black or brown my friend you can be questioned or deported on sight
In our chants of "ICE out now!" our city's heart and soul persists
Through broken glass and bloody tears on the streets of Minneapolis
Oh our Minneapolis, I hear your voice singing through the bloody mist
Here in our home they killed and roamed in the winter of '26
We'll take our stand for this land and the stranger in our midst
We'll remember the names of those who died on the streets of Minneapolis
We'll remember the names of those who died on the streets of Minneapolis

This Land is Your Land
This land is your land,
and this land is my land
From California to the New York Island
From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream Waters
This land was made
for you and me
As I went walking that ribbon of highway
And I saw above me that endless skyway
I saw below me that golden valley
This land was made for you and me
I roamed and rambled and I followed my footsteps
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
All around me a voice was
a-sounding
This land was made for you and me
There was a big high wall there that tried to stop me
Sign was painted, said, "Private Property"
But on the back side, it didn't say nothing
This land was made for you and me
When the sun comes shining, then I was strolling
And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling
A voice come chanting as the fog was lifting
This land was made for you and me
This land is your land,
and this land is my land
From California to the New York Island
From Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream Waters
This land was made for you and me
