People Have the Power lyrics

I was dreaming in my dreaming Of an aspect bright and fair Oh, and my sleeping, it was broken But my dream, it lingered near In the form of shining valleys Where the pure air recognized Oh, and my senses newly opened And I awakened to the cry That the people have the power To redeem the work of fools From the meek, the graces shower It's decreed, the people rule People have the power People have the power People have the power People have the power Vengeful aspects became suspect And bending low as if to hear Well, and the armies ceased advancing Because the people had their ear And the shepherds and the soldiers And they laid among the stars Exchanging visions, laying arms To waste in the dust In the form of shining valleys Where the pure air recognized And my senses newly opened And I awakened to the cry People have the power People have the power People have the power People have the power Where there were deserts, I saw fountains Like cream, the waters rise And we strolled there together With none to laugh or criticize And the leopard and the lamb Lay together truly bound Oh, I was hoping in my hoping To recall what I had found Well, I was dreaming in my dreaming God knows, a pure view As I lay down into my sleeping I commit my dream to you People have the power People have the power People have the power People have the power The power to dream, to rule To wrestle the earth from fools But it's decreed, the people rule But it's decreed, the people rule Listen, I believe everything we dream Can come to pass through our union Oh, we can turn the world around We can turn the Earth's revolution We have the power People have the power People have the power People have the power The power to dream, to rule To wrestle the Earth from fools But it's decreed, the people rule But it's decreed, the people rule We have the power We have the power And people have the power We have the power
