This heartfelt spiritual about standing with God is presented here in a simple folk style with two acoustic guitars, upright bass, and drums. Adopted by the civil rights movement as "We Shall Not Be Moved", the melody now conjures images of standing against injustice.
Many other lyrics can be found, some more clearly religious, others more directly related to the civil rights movement. The lyrics in our sheet music are some of the most common
:Glory, hallelujah, I shall not be moved.
Anchored in Jehovah, I shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that's planted by the water,
I shall not be moved.
In his love abiding, I shall not be moved,
and in him confiding, I shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that's planted by the water,
I shall not be moved.
I shall not, I shall not be moved.
I shall not, I shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that's planted by the water,
I shall not be moved.
Though the tempest rages, I shall not be moved.
On the rock of ages, I shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that's planted by the water,
I shall not be moved.
I'm on my way to heaven, I shall not be moved.
On my way to heaven, I shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that's planted by the water,
I shall not be moved.
I shall not, I shall not be moved.
I shall not, I shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that's planted by the water,
I shall not be moved.
