Phil Ochs
The Power and the Glory
[Verse 1]
Come and take a walk with me through this green and growing land
Walk through the meadows and the mountains and the sand
Walk through the valleys and the rivers and the plains
Walk through the sun and walk through the rain
[Chorus]
Here's a land full of power and glory
Beauty that words cannot recall
Oh, her power shall rest on the strength of her freedom
Her glory shall rest on us all
[Verse 2]
Yet she’s only as rich as the poorest of the poor
Only as free as a padlocked prison door
Only as strong as our love for this land
Only as tall as we stand
[Chorus]
Here's a land full of power and glory
Beauty that words cannot recall
Oh, her power shall rеst on the strength of her freedom
Hеr glory shall rest on us all
Here's a land full of power and glory
Beauty that words cannot recall
Oh, her power shall rest on the strength of her freedom
Her glory shall rest on us all
