Didn't anyone ever tell you Didn't anyone ever say Did you capture a vision of glory As she held out her hand today It's reaching to the broken heart Right down to where you stand Didn't anyone ever tell you This is your land Didn't anyone ever tell you It doesn't matter the last will be first For the sad and the meek and the righteous And all those who will hunger and thirst So let the poor in spirit know These dreams are not of sand Didn't anyone ever tell you This is your land You'll be given the robes of princes You'll be flying on golden wings You will live in pavilions of splendor Be surrounded by beautiful things So hold on to these promises And keep them in your hand Didn't anyone ever tell you This is your land -
