This Is the Year

As you rise up with the day All your nightmares melt away Never knowing where you're going When the heart and mind are combined They guide you upon your weary way Can't believe what you hear (Hear, hear) Can't believe what you hear (Hear, hear) Though there's one thing perfectly clear You're the tip of the spear Tip of the spear You're the tip of the spear Tip of the spear And this is the year they disappear under your cheer This is the year, never to fear, freedom is near And this is the year they disappear under your cheer This is the year, never to fear, freedom is near This is the year This is the year They may cry, cackle and bray They may not heed what you say All their crowing overflowing Till the ties that bind all of humankind Will remind you how to pray When we needed you here (Hear, hear) When we needed you here (Hear, hear) You were cut-throat, quick and severe Like the tip of the spear Tip of the spear You're the tip of the spear Tip of the spear And this is the year they disappear under your cheer This is the year, never to fear, freedom is near And this is the year they disappear under your cheer This is the year, never to fear, freedom is near When this is the year (Hear, hear) They disappear (Finally, Dear) Under your cheer (Now it's here) (This is the year) This is the year (Hear, hear) Never to fear (Finally, Dear) Freedom is near (Now it's here) (This is the year) And this is the year (Hear, hear) They disappear (Finally, Dear) Under your cheer (Now it's here) (This is the year) This is the year (Hear, hear) Never to fear (Finally, Dear) Freedom is near (Now it's here) (This is) This is the year This is the year This is the year
