He led the fight
For civil rights
Marching for equality.
Martin Luther King its your day today
It is now time to sing
Martin Luther King its your day today
Martin Luther King.
There was a time
There was a time
One man stood up, he would change things
He led the fight

Marching for equality.

It is now time to sing
Martin Luther King its your day today
Martin Luther King.

Build it strong
Build it long
He had a dream
Build it strong
Build it long
He had a dream.
