There is a land beyond the stars where those who overcome go
Where there’s no sickness, hunger or wars and peaceful waters flow. . .

Come on everybody sing out Martin’s song
We all need help from above if we want’ta overcome
From daughters of truth an’ justice and sons of liberty
Ask not for who the bell tolls, freedom’s bell tolls for you an’ me

       Take the peaceful easy doorway to freedom on liberty mountain
       Come on up to liberty mountain, take a little drink from freedom’s fountain
       Good news splashed on the doorpost written in crimson, “Everybody's
            welcome”
       Take God's forgiving doorway to freedom on liberty mountain

Come on everybody sing out Rosa’s song
We all need help from above if we want’ta overcome
From daughters of truth an’ justice and sons of liberty
Ask not for who the bell tools, freedom’s bell tolls for you an’ me

       Take the peaceful easy doorway to freedom on liberty mountain
       Come on up to liberty mountain, take a little drink from freedom’s fountain
       Good news splashed on the doorpost written in crimson, “Everybody's
            welcome”
       Take God's forgiving doorway to freedom on liberty mountain

       Have a drink of free wine from the Jesus fountain on liberty mountain *
