Candi Staton - People Have The Power Lyrics

Mmm...

I was dreamin' in my dreamin' Of an aspect bright and fair And my sleepin', it was broken But my dreams, it lingered near In the form of shinin' valleys Where the pure air is recognized And my senses newly opened As I awakened to the cry

That the people have a power To redeem the work of fools Upon the meek the graces shower It's decreed the people rule Hey, hey

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) People have the power, oh, yeah People have the power

Where there were deserts, I saw fountains Like cream, the water rise As we strolled there together None to laugh, ha, or criticize And the leopard and the lamb Lay together, truly bound I was hopin' in my hopin' To recall what I had found

Oh, I was dreamin' in my dreamin' God knows a purer view As I surrendered in my sleepin' I commit my dream to you, yeah

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)

The power to dream Yeah The power to rule, oh, yeah To, to wrestle the world from fools It's decreed, the people rule

(People have the power) It's decreed, the people rule (People have the power) People have the power (People have the power) I believe in everything we dream (People have the power) Come to pass through our union (People have the power) We can turn the world around (The power) We can turn the Earth's revolution (Power, the power) We have a power, people, yes, we do (Power, the power) People have the power (Power, the power) People have the power
