People Have the Power

I was dreamin' in my dreamin'
Of an aspect bright and fair
And my sleepin' it was broken
But my dream it lingered nearIn the form of shinin' valleys
Where the pure air recognized
Oh, and my senses newly opened
And I awakened to the cryAnd the people have the power
To redeem the work of fools
From the meek the graces shower
It's decreed the people rulePeople have the power
People have the power
People have the power
People have the powerVengeful aspects became suspect
And bending low as if to hear
Well, and the armies ceased advancin'
Because the people had their earAnd the shepherds [Incomprehensible] the soldiers
And they laid among the stars
Exchanging visions, layin' arms
To waste in the dustIn the form of shinin' valleys
Where the pure air recognized
And my senses newly opened
And I awakened to the cryPeople have the power
People have the power
People have the power
People have the powerWhere there were deserts, I saw fountains
Like cream the waters rise
And we strolled there together
With none to laugh or criticizeThere is no leopard and the lamb
And lay together truly bound
Well I was hopin' in my hopin'
To recall what I had foundWell I was dreamin' in my dreamin'
God knows a pure view
As I lay down into my sleepin'
And I commit my dream with youPeople have the power
People have the power
People have the power
People have the powerThe power to dream, to rule
To wrestle the earth from fools
But it's decreed the people rule
But it's decreed the people ruleListen, I believe everythin' we dream
Can come to pass through our union
We can turn the world around
We can turn the earth's revolutionWe have the power
People have the power
People have the power
People have the powerThe power to dream, to rule
To wrestle the earth from fools
But it's decreed the people rule
But it's decreed the people ruleWe have the power
We have the power
People have the power
We have the power
