Dick Cavett might have had the hippest show ever. what a great version of this song.
-
I love Ray and this aint a bad song but shouldn't we all be united as one nation? Not separated.
-
Good rendition, but Kim Weston still owns it.
-
Al Sharpton has the best show on TV now! He is on point!
-
Just another example of the A.A. Gospel's magnificence. Incredible that people who were dragged here in chains, and treated so brutally, found it in their hearts to create such beauty - it is inspiring beyond words - how's that for devotion? Not to mention, patriotism!
As thetsmiths wrote - Amen, brother Ray!

As a white person, I still wish this were OUR national anthem. While the Star Spangled Banner is beautiful and I am totally appreciative of it as our national anthem, I would have to say I'd prefer a song like this which speaks of the truth of our past which we have done so much (but not enough, yet) to overcome. Instead of the heroism displayed in warfare, this song emphasizes the moral courage of all those (oppressed and oppressors) who have faced the truth and responded. Amen, brother Ray!

@Conail23 Im black and I like the current 'civil rights leaders they keep are issues current. You have to remember MLK Ray Charles and Malcolm X are dead, but are issues are not.

You don't have to be Jewish to love Levy's, and you don't have to be Black to love this song.

"Lift Every Voice and Sing" is the Black National Anthem. Thank you, Ray! It is on your shoulders we stand.
