sang this song for about 8 straight hours at MLK's funeral procession. Still brings tears to me especially when it's sung as beautifully as this. leave it to his alma mater for this fantastic post

These are the real Americans the MSM won't let you see, these great Americans and all those that enlist to serve our country day and night, protecting and defending USA with their strength and courage. ruclips.net/video/pgV6VUinDEA/видео.html
It's just the tuxedos that make them look nice. I suggest taking them, each one, out for a meal and a chat to find out how they really are in character.
I am White, and I know that as a country, we will overcome the wicked legacy of the past hand in hand and unafraid despite attempts by the likes Trump and DeSantis to reinflame outdated tensions for political gain. I look forward to the day when race is no longer a factor in judging the worth or Americanness of our fellow countrymen and brothers and sisters in Christ, many of whom have deeper roots here than most others.
This performance is a while back, but still remains powerful as ever. I shared this with Palestinian friends who are in dire state at the moment more than ever ...
I am from Fiji and my island nation is currently going through the second wave of coronavirus and it has hit us pretty bad. The health workers are exhausted, the nation is losing hope and everyday is like fighting a losing battle against an unknown enemy. I happened to remember we used to sing this back in our school and I looked up the song. This gave me so much hope, for myself and my nation 💙 we definitely shall overcome!
Dr. King, Malcolm X, Muhammad Ali, and all those who risked their lives for civil rights and stood on their principles to change our nation, this song is for you!!!
I can't help but cry as I listen to this and reflect on all the racism we in this country are STILL dealing with. In my mind's eye I can still see the pictures in history books of African Americans, their backs striped with scars, others hung, others in chains. How brave it is for these individuals to believe in the future. How incredibly brave.
Still only a 4% fatality rate in the United States as of today and the media would have you believe its the Black Plague!! Im seriously thinking of buying a home security shotgun because if this countrys economy stays closed after May I think you could see civil unrest. Unreal.....and ridiculous to destroy the economy of a country for even a 10% fatality rate!
.. hair standing on end - BEAUTIFUL.. each chorister is rich with legacy - in their faces, see their ancestors. In their voices, the love their ancestors have for them, comes shining through..♥. G:)d bless
I'm too young to completely understand the events that took place during the decade of the sixties. I was not there during the March On Washington on August 28 1963, and yet, I feel as if time, space, and human connection collides together and puts my soul there everytime I here this song. It gives me chills.
Hearing these beautiful voices brings thoughts of there ancestors,kidnapped,enslaved, and after countless hardships, trully overcome.God Bless them all.
I do believe that we shall overcome someday......every time I hear this song I shed some tears for MLK, ...he was such a great man that I have no words to describe him. I just am thankful to the universe that he existed for a time in our lives.
I remember performing this song, as a young girl in 1989, at the Patrice Lumumba Peoples' Friendship University in Moscow. I was not a very good singer, and my English far from perfect, but the audience (students from African and Asian countries) started to sing along as a choir, so it was an absolutely uplifting anf amazing experience! will never forget it, such a mighty song! Same spirit as Russian folk songs.
Don't you fucking relate Martin Luther Kings time to FERGUSON. This is NOTHING like that, OR CLOSE TO THAT. I find that VERY disrespectful, that you think this exaggerated thing is even CLOSE to 1960's.
Unfortunately we have become displacent, whether Mike Brown, Jim Brown, Tom Brown, It is a name that has awaken what has never stop.. Laws and policies to fit the time and place that we are currently living. For whatever reason we have become content in the way one is treated and the way we live.. Close your eyes to Mike Brown and open your eyes to the world nothings changed ( but the calendar).. We need only to first evaluate our prison systems and the structure in which it was made and currently running .. It's big business my Brother and sisters and we are the commodity...
Nahben Haben Unfortunately this isn't a laughing matter.. An for you to even think that I'm relating a totally different time to what is happening in today as it did in the 1965 and even earlier than King... There have been many struggles. Each takes on a different face as it has in prior generations .. and to be close minded to one is closed minded to Doctors Kings bigger vision and those before him... no this isn't a laughing matter.. but a human race matter...This isn't an attempt to put down your statements.. but an awakening that the struggle has never stopped.... know matter which way you chose to look at the issue...
the most stunning performance of this piece i've ever heard. the long phrases, each verse building in intensity, flawless musicianship, and of course the many layers of meaning - too beautiful.
Incredibly beautiful, soulful and inspirational. Thank you for sharing. As Dr. King said..."We may not all have come in on the same ship, but we're in the same boat now." Let's love & support one another - red, yellow, black or white.

This choir is wonderful. I came here after reading Dan Rather's post today. With the events this past weekend in Charlottesville and the responses of our "president", this provides me with some solace and hope that this shall pass and we will go on. We have to.
As I listen to this song that has lasted down through the years, I am encouraged to know that someday, after this old world has past and gone and troubles are no more, I truly believe that we will overcome and be able to rest in Heavenly Glory.
Whenever I am feeling down I listen to this song. It gives me the strength to get through my days. Some days I feel week and horrible and then I listen to this song. This video especially. It is so beautiful and awe inspiring. It makes me feel as if I am complete. God bless this choir. God bless this talent. A group of people so generously gifted by God. I am humbled by their ability to make me feel as if I am of worth. Praise the glory of Christ.
When the world is turning upside down.. and when all the hopes, trust,faith are lost in the current political, judicial,social system.. This song is used as a motivation for many.. This song which is Gospel song composed by the Reverend Charles Albert Tindley.. BIBLE Galatians 6:9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. 10 Therefore , as we have oppurtunity , let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers. 8. Those who sow to please their sinful nature,from that nature will reap destruction; those who sow to please the spirit,from the spirit will reap ETERNAL LIFE. I thank God for this song, which is a source of inspiration to many. This song if we understand the true meaning.. not only we will find HOPE. BUT ETERNAL LIFE..!!!
I am thankful that my friend Benjamin shared this most inspiring link with me. Praise God for these men, and I pray that their efforts will not be muted.
My wife and I have been attending the Spellman/Morehouse Christmas Concert (held 1st weekend of Dec. each year) for the last three years. We have been overwhelmed with the music offered by these two groups. I first heard the Morehouse Glee Club on NPR on a MLK celebration some 15 years ago. What an outstanding group they are. By the way, Dr. King sang in the Morehouse Glee Club.
I love humanity so much, the road must be taken, now its clear. all kinds too all. Such harmony in pure and simple even if it's jazzy. There is a way to end all wars. All kinds. All know kinds.
Cate Brewe I have heard it a couple of times already, I hope this marks a new day for us in this country and the entire diaspora whose ancestors were brought here through slavery.
With everything that has happened in the last few hours, days and weeks, this song is particularly stirring and deeply moving for me at the moment. #justiceformikebrown
The fact that you could find offense to that post in no way, shape or form refers to you is laughable and a little sad. Fact of the matter is that I really and truly do not give a damn if you are offended. I wasn't talking to you. Have several seats.
Let me rephrase, I think what you said was insanely idiotic and most likely lost many IQ points by simply being exposed to it, and I greatly hope nobody else has read, for the sake of their mental health.
Dedicating this song to the memory of King Family members ưho have gone onto Glory; just found out that the youngest son of Dr.MLK, Jr. passed yêsterday ( January 22,2024)❤ Totally Brokenhearted at this news and praying for the family!❤ May God continue to bless and strengthen this Godly and Great Family!!❤❤❤
Here's a beautiful song of hope, needed just as much today as when many of us sang in 1964 in Mississippi. That "arc of the moral universe" is indeed, VERY long!
Dr King, Doğum günün kutlu olsun. ''We Shall Overcome'' şarkısını, mezun olduğun okulun korosundan bir kaç kez üst üste dinledim. Şarkının derin ve olağanüstü güzelliğiyle hem büyülendim hem hüzünlendim
Just a beautiful rendition of this beautiful song. I grew up in Compton California from 1962 through 1973 and sang in the prestigious Compton Boy Choir for three years (4th through 6th grade). We performed this song much like this Glee Club. Brought back many fond memories of those times. Thank you so much for posting!

Wow! Thanks for sharing.
Were you at the funeral in person?
You are loved.
welcome to fact or cap where we test these theories
That’s amazing! It’s so sad that a Champion of Civil Rights was Assassinated for what he truly believed in. RIP Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
47 years ago in Georgia I was afraid and beaten. I look at these young men and i apologize for being afraid. Jeff
Jeff Parcells God bless you.we've never met and probably never will.But may God bless you, nay his Grace be upon you always...may he meet you at the point of your every need
sorry that you felt mate love u
But you are alive.. To me that is what matters. You made it when many didnt.
Jeff Parcells God bless you!
no need, ever, Jeff, to apologise. you were still there. god bless you!

This is what young Black American men look like. Not thugs. Not degenerated. Young men who make America proud. KNOW IT
Powerful man😢😢😢he died so young and he died when he was 39
This should be the anthem of human kind.

Sorry to hear that! What is the vaccine situation over there?
Sending love and strength 🙏🏻 this song is deep and beautiful , what a beautiful rendition! ❤❤❤❤💪🏼
Yes indeed we shall overcome some day when Jesus comes
This isn’t a song about waiting for a savior to liberate us. It’s a song about fighting for that liberation NOW, to bring about that day ourselves.
Dr. King, Malcolm X, Muhammad Ali, and all those who risked their lives for civil rights and stood on their principles to change our nation, this song is for you!!!
who else found this song through school and now feels blessed to hear their message!
Same! It’s a very calming song

Flooding the internet with this! 💔🙏💙🙏❤
I myself do believe deep in my heart we shall overcome someday...my only fear is that at age 74, I might not live to see it.
Ths Song reminds me of my Late parents. May their Souls rest in peace
so moving. I grew up in the segregated South. may we all overcome our narrow bigotry someday
Indeed... and the secret for it is true love for all ❤
We WILL overcome some day. We haven't achieved it yet, but we SHALL overcome!
If you haven't yet achieved it, you never will.

We are NOT afraid; we are not afraid; we are not afraid today! Beautiful.
OK but when still waiting for that time well' I have news wake up" I heard this when I was 5
Yep, Ronald Williams-EL. The trouble is that black "leaders" were more concerned about the underclass when they were among that population.
I remember performing this song, as a young girl in 1989, at the Patrice Lumumba Peoples' Friendship University in Moscow. I was not a very good singer, and my English far from perfect, but the audience (students from African and Asian countries) started to sing along as a choir, so it was an absolutely uplifting anf amazing experience! will never forget it, such a mighty song! Same spirit as Russian folk songs.
I suddenly realized that this is what I needed to hear today 11/13/2016.
I Dedicate the song to the People of Ferguson MO. May they know that WE SHALL OVERCOME. May they find Peace and Begin to Heal.
And now to all people we feel like they can't breath...

Here's a beautiful song of hope, needed just as much today as when many of us sang in 1964 in Mississippi. That "arc of the moral universe" is indeed, VERY long!
Deep in my heart, I do believe, that we shall overcome some day.
Morehouse stands for excellence.
Dr King, Doğum günün kutlu olsun. ''We Shall Overcome'' şarkısını, mezun olduğun okulun korosundan bir kaç kez üst üste dinledim. Şarkının derin ve olağanüstü güzelliğiyle hem büyülendim hem hüzünlendim
Just a beautiful rendition of this beautiful song. I grew up in Compton California from 1962 through 1973 and sang in the prestigious Compton Boy Choir for three years (4th through 6th grade).
We performed this song much like this Glee Club. Brought back many fond memories of those times.
Thank you so much for posting!
Absolutely gorgeous, deeply moving and soulful. Unity is what evil fears, so we UNITE !
I am from Jordan, I used to listen to this anthem in my fifth class in the longman English course, in 1987-1989 may be....
I love it...
I found this song by "My name is Khan". It's a good movie and this song so great, beautiful and amazing!!! Thank you!
Since I understand the history of the song "We shall overcome", it sounds to my spirit everyday. What a powerful and peaceful hymn it is.
Remembering and grateful for the life and leadership of MLK.
