Generate meaning
1
I was dreaming in my dreaming
2
of an aspect bright and fair
3
and my sleeping it was broken
4
but my dream it lingered near
5
in the form of shining valleys
6
where the pure air recognized
7
and my senses newly opened
8
I awakened to the cry
9
that the people / have the power
10
to redeem / the work of fools
11
upon the meek / the graces shower
12
it's decreed / the people rule
13
The people have the power
14
The people have the power
15
The people have the power
16
The people have the power
17
Vengeful aspects became suspect
18
and bending low as if to hear
19
and the armies ceased advancing
20
because the people had their ear
21
and the shepherds and the soldiers
22
lay beneath the stars
23
exchanging visions
24
and laying arms
25
to waste / in the dust
26
in the form of / shining valleys
27
where the pure air / recognized
28
and my senses / newly opened
29
I awakened / to the cry
30
Refrain
31
Where there were deserts
32
I saw fountains
33
like cream the waters rise
34
and we strolled there together
35
with none to laugh or criticize
36
and the leopard
37
and the lamb
38
lay together truly bound
39
I was hoping in my hoping
40
to recall what I had found
41
I was dreaming in my dreaming
42
god knows / a purer view
43
as I surrender to my sleeping
44
I commit my dream to you
45
Refrain
46
The power to dream / to rule
47
to wrestle the world from fools
48
it's decreed the people rule
49
it's decreed the people rule
50
LISTEN
51
I believe everything we dream
52
can come to pass through our union
53
we can turn the world around
54
we can turn the earth's revolution
55
we have the power
56
People have the power ...
