My New Favorite! Les Deplorables
The Song of Angry Men – from Les Miserables (Les Deplorables)
CHORUS 1
Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will NOT be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes!
VERSE 1
Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Beyond the barricade
Is there a world you long to see?
Then join in the fight
That will give you the right to be free!
CHORUS 1
VERSE 2
Will you give all you can give
So that our banner may advance? (To re-establish liberty)
Some will fall and some will live
Will you stand up and take you chance? (Will you stand, will you be free?)
The blood of the martyrs (The blood of tyrants)
Will water the meadows of France! (Will water the liberty tree!)
CHORUS 1
CHORUS 2
Do you hear the people sing
Lost in the valley of the night?
It is the music of a people
Who are climbing to the light.
For the wretched of the earth (For the souls throughout the earth)
There is a flame that never dies.
Even the darkest night will end
And the sun will rise.
VERSE 3
We will live again in freedom
In the garden of the Lord.
We will walk behind the plough-share,
We will put away the sword.
The chain will be broken
And all men will have their reward.
CHORUS 3
Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Somewhere beyond the barricade
Is there a world you long to see?
Do you hear the people sing?
Say, do you hear the distant drums?
It is the future that they bring
When tomorrow comes!
Proud to be an American
Praying for our Military and Giving Thanks
Thwarted Dreams . . . Keep Praying To Keep America GREAT!
Respect . . .
Kneeling in disrespect to the flag doesn’t make you a strong or good person. It is standing up to the forces against our flag that makes this country strong.
