Make a song, song maker
Sing of love, sweet love
Do not make it a shaker,
Make it move from above
Sing it strong and gentle,
Sing it sweet and low
Let the words be simple
So that all may know
The dignity of man,
Sing of the dignity of man,
Sing of the dignity of man
Sing of proud black brother,
Sing of pale-faced son
Sing of the joys of a mother,
She's the mother of everyone
You got red blood rivers
Rushing through your veins
You got hearts that quiver
Full of love's sweet pain
Sing of the dignity of man
Sing of the dignity of man
Sing of the dignity of man
Sing of the dignity of man
Sing of the dignity of man
Make a dream, dream weaver,
Full of hope and praise
Sing of the joyful,
Sing of the joyful sadness
Of this human play
Oh, gather all men's wishes,
Show them to be one
Sing of God's great glory
For the humbled hearted one
Sing of the dignity of man
Sing of the dignity of man
Sing of the dignity of man
Sing of the dignity of man
Sing of the dignity of man
Sing of the dignity of man
Sing of the dignity of man
Sing of the dignity of man
Sing of the dignity of man
Sing of the dignity of man
Sing of the dignity of man
