I Remember, I Believe

Bernice Johnson Reagon

I don't know how my mother walked her trouble down
I don't know how my father stood his ground
I don't know how my people survive slavery
I do remember, that's why I believe

I don't know why the rivers overflow their banks
I don't know why the snow falls and covers the ground
I don't know why the hurricane sweeps through the land
Every now and then
Standing in a rainstorm, I believe

I don't know why the angels woke me up this morning soon
I don't know why the blood still runs thru my veins
I don't know how I rate to run another day
I am here still runin', I believe...

My God calls to me in the morning dew
The power of the universe, It knows my name
Gave me a song to sing and sent me on my way
I raise my voice for justice, I believe...
