Justice At Last

Don't you worry about the mountains

Don't you worry about the valleys

Don't you worry about the snares

And don't you worry about the traps

Because justice does not rest

Justice does not sleep

Justice does not wait

Justice does not always wail

Justice will not faint

Justice will not weary

Justice will not stop

Justice will keep running

And don't look back

Don't look at what you had

Don't look at how far you come

just to turn around

Don't settle for injustice

Don't settle for the little

But get your just reward

You had the faith

You had the will

You dream the impossible

Reach within you

Reach down within

Reach deep down within

And withstand this circumstance

Withstand this situation

Withstand this trial.

For when you fixed your eyes on the glory

When you fixed your eyes on justice

And you are determined

And you are convinced

And you fully and confidently persuaded

that justice will roll down like mighty waters

It shall be done, it has to happen

it's inevitable and this glory from above

knowing your tests and trials have proven you

And we can count everything as joy
