Hoist Up the Banner Songtext
von Eric Bibb

Song flew through the open window
Sounding like heaven to me
Suddenly there, I heard the angels singing
Singing in harmony

Hoist up the banner, humanity
Hoist up the banner of love

Where did it come from? I can′t say
Somewhere where the land is green
Singing it soothes my soul today
Because it's later than it seems


So here it is, the way it arrived
From a place where we all come from
A song to help us carry on (oh yeah)

Hoist up the banner, humanity (come on, come on, come on)
Hoist up the banner of love

We got work to do, she′s healing time
Only one way to get the job done
I don't think of myself as a flag waver
And here I am, waving this one

Hoist up the banner, humanity
Hoist up the banner of love
Hoist up the banner, humanity
Hoist up the banner of love

Song flew through the open window
Sounding like heaven to me
