My Sisters And Brothers Lyrics - Fall 1989: The Long Island Sound - Jerry Garcia Band

I wanna say to my sisters and my brothers 

Keep the faith 

When the storm flies and the wind blows 

Go on at a steady pace 

When the battle is fought and the victory's won 

We can all shout together we have overcome 

We'll talk to the Father and the Son 

When we make it to the promised land 

If we walk together little children 

We don't ever have to worry 

Through this world of trouble 

We gotta love one another 

Let us take our fellow man by the hand 

Try to help him to understand 

We can all be together forever and ever 

When we make it to the promised land 

Our bible reads 

Thou shall not be afraid 

Of the terror by night 

Nor the arrow that flies by day 

Nor for the pestilence 

That waiteth in the darkness 

Nor for the destruction 

That waiteth in the noon-day hour 

If we walk together little children 

We don't ever have to worry 

Through this world of trouble 

We gotta love one another 

Let us take our fellow man by the hand 

Try to help him to understand 

We can all be together forever and ever 

When we make it to the promised land 

This world is not our home 

We're only passing through 

Our trail is all made up 

Way beyond the blue 

Let us do the very best that we can 

While we're travelin' through this land 

We can all be together shakin' a hand 

When we make it to the promised land 

If we walk together little children 

We don't ever have to worry 

Through this world of trouble 

We gotta love one another 

Let us take our fellow man by the hand 

Try to help him to understand 

We can all be together forever and ever 

When we make it to the promised land 

When we make it to the promised land 

Make it to the promised land 

(Sisters) 

Make it to the promised land 

(Little children) 

Make it to the promised land 

Make it to the promised land 

(Children) 

Make it to the promised land 

We can all be together forever and ever 

When we make it to the promised land 

Walk together little children 

We won't ever have to worry 

Through this world of trouble 

We gotta love one another 

Let us take our fellow man by the hand 

Try to help him to understand 

We can all be together forever and ever 

When we make it to the promised land 

We can all be together forever and ever 

When we make it to the promised land
