LABOUR DAY HYMNS

We Work for Jobs with Justice Now
Genesis 1:27; Exodus 6:2-8

We work for jobs with justice now, for true equality;
come, Sister-Brother Spirit, come, and help us all be free.

We join together, claiming power, as workers we unite;
come, Sister-Brother Spirit, come, restore our human rights.

We work to stop injustice now, to end oppressive ways;
come, Sister-Brother Spirit, come, and guide to better days.

Come, Sister-Brother Spirit, come, and heal our wounded past;
together we shall overcome, and all be free at last.                                    

Refrain:
We are claiming the promised land; we are claiming the promised land;
come, sisters, brothers, hand in hand; we are claiming the promised land.
