A Pillar of Dignity

[Intro]
Oh
Mmm

[Chorus]
Honored leader of a broken land
With the union in your shaking hand
Abraham Lincoln stood for the free
A pillar of dignity
Justice found a humble friend
Where the bitterness and fighting end
Abraham Lincoln walked the right way
Building a brand new day

[Verse 1]
Cabin logs and candle flame
A silent start to a famous name
Taught himself how to truly read
Prepared his heart for a noble deed
Far from the wealthy or the proud

[Pre-Chorus]
He heard the cry
He felt the pain
He broke the chain

[Chorus]
Honored leader of a broken land
With the union in your shaking hand
Abraham Lincoln stood for the free
A pillar of dignity
Justice found a humble friend
Where the bitterness and fighting end
Abraham Lincoln walked the right way
Building a brand new day

[Verse 2]
Brother fought his brother on the hill
Rivers of red are running still
A nation divided needs to find peace
Searching for some sweet release
Underneath a heavy winter sky

[Pre-Chorus]
The truth was told
The vote was cast
Equality at last

[Bridge]
With malice toward none
With charity for all
United we stand
Before we ever fall
Four score years ago we made a plan

[Chorus]
Honored leader of a broken land
With the union in your shaking hand
Abraham Lincoln stood for the free
A pillar of dignity
Justice found a humble friend
Where the bitterness and fighting end
Abraham Lincoln walked the right way
Building a brand new day

[Hook]
The path is clear
The path is wide
The path is here
