Sweet Honey in the Rock

Sweet Honey in the Rock is an all-woman, African-American a cappella ensemble. They are an American Grammy Award-winning (and many times nominated) troupe who express their history as women of color through song, dance, and sign language. They have together worked from four women to the difficult five-part harmony with a sixth member translating with sign language. Although the members have changed over 3 decades, they continue to sing and have helped to produce several children's records as well as those intended for adults. more »

I don?t know how my mother walked her trouble down
I don?t know how my father stood his ground
I don?t know how my people survive slavery
I do remember, that?s why I believe

I don?t know how the rivers overflow their banks
I don?t know how the snow falls and covers the ground
I don?t know how the hurricane sweeps through the land
Every now and then 
Standing in a rainstorm, I believe

I don?t know how the angels woke me up this morning soon
I don?t know how the blood still runs through my veins
I don?t know how I rate to run another day
Standing in a rainstorm I believe

My God calls to me in the morning dew
The power of the universe knows my name
Gave me a song to sing and sent me on my way
I raise my voice for justice I believe
