Lift Every Voice and Sing | Piano Instrumental

"Life Every Voice and Sing". I grew up with this song. I was made to memorize it in elementary school, and learned to play it for school assemblies. This song is one I have cherished in my heart for as long as I can remember.

It is a song that not only testifies to the struggles of black people, but also to their hope. A unified hope founded up a resounding faith in the "God of our weary years, God of our silent tears, Thou who has brought us thus far on the way."

It is an invitation of inclusion. An invitation to rejoice in liberty and the freedom to worship the God who brought us over.

I share the faith of my African America ancestors. It reminds me of the unwavering hope that I too have in the person of Christ, who unites me with people from every nation tongue and tribe. I celebrate this rich heritage and carry it forward to my children and to the next generation.

Perhaps you'll join me in singing this song on this Black History Month and also ponder the faith of my ancestors. Do you have this hope?
