When you march stand up straight.   When you fill the world with hate   Step in time with your kind and   Let it ring      When you speak against me   Would you bring your family   Say it loud pass it down and   Let it ring      Let it ring to Jesus 'cause he sure'd be proud of you   You made fear an institution and it got the best of you   Let it ring in the name of the one that set you free   Let it ring      As I wander through this valley   In the shadow of my doubting   I will not be discounted   So let it ring      You can cite the need for wars   Call us infidels or whores   Either way we'll be your neighbor   So let it ring      Let it ring   in the name of the man that set you free   Let it ring      And the strife will make me stronger   As my maker leads me onward   I'll be marching in that number   So let it ring      I'm gonna let it ring to Jesus   Cause I know he loves me too   And I get down on my knees and I pray the same as you   Let it ring, let it ring   'Cause one day we'll all be free
