(Garth Brooks Stephanie Davis)

This ain't comin' from no prophet  
Just an ordinary man  
When I close my eyes I see
The way this world shall be  
When we all walk hand in hand  

When the last child cries for a crust of bread  
When the last man dies for just words that he said  
When there's shelter over the poorest head  
We shall be free  

When the last thing we notice is the color of skin  
And the first thing we look for is the beauty within  
When the skies and the oceans are clean again  
Then we shall be free

We shall be free  
We shall be free  
Stand straight, walk proud  
'Cause we shall be free  
When we're free to love anyone we choose  
When this world's big enough for all different views  
When we all can worship from our own kind of pew  
Then we shall be free  
We shall be free  

We shall be free  
Have a little faith  
Hold out  
'Cause we shall be free  

And when money talks for the very last time  
And nobody walks a step behind  
When there's only one race and that's mankind  
Then we shall be free  

We shall be free  
We shall be free  
Stand straight, walk proud, have a little faith, hold out
We shall be free  

We shall be free  
We shall be free  
Stand straight, have a little faith

We shall be free
