People Have the Power - Live
I was dreaming in my dreaming
Of an aspect bright and fair
And my sleeping, it was broken
But my dream, it lingered near
In the form of shining valleys
Where the pure air recognized
And my senses newly opened
I awakened to the cry
That the people have the power
To redeem the work of fools
Upon the meek the graces shower
It's decreed, the people rule
Come on
People have the power
People have the power
People have the power
People have the power
I first
Vengeful aspects became suspect
And bending low as if to hear
And the armies ceased advancing
Because the people had their ear
And the shepherds and the soldiers
They lay beneath the stars
Exchanging visions and laying arms
To waste in the dust
In the form of shining valleys
Where the pure air recognized
And my senses newly opened
I awakened to the cry
People have the power
People have the power
People have the power
People have the power
Where there were deserts, I saw fountains
And like cream, the waters rise
And we strolled there together
With none to laugh or criticize
And the leopard and the lamb
Lay together truly bound
I was hoping in my hoping
To recall what I had found
I was dreaming in my dreaming
God knows a purer view
And I surrender to my sleeping
I commit this dream to you
People have the power
People have the power
People have the power
People have the power
The power to dream, to rule
To wrestle the world from fools
It's decreed the people rule
It's decreed, the people rule, yeah
I believe, everything we see
Can come to pass through our union
We can turn the world around
We can change the Earth's revolution
We have the power
People have the power
People have the power
People have the power
People have the power
People have the power
People have the power
People have the power
People have the power
You have the power
People have the power, let's hear it
(People have the power)
People have the power
(People have the power)
Just something to remember
Thanks so much, thank you
Take it, use it, it's all yours
People have the power
People have the power
People have the power
People have the power
(People have the power)
(People have the power)
(People have the power)
(People have the power)
Thank you
Goodnight
Love
