Great day
Great day, the righteous marchin'
Great day, God's gonna build up Zion's walls
Oh, great day
Great day, the righteous marchin'
Great day, God's gonna build up Zion's walls
Chariot rode on the mountain top
God's gonna build up Zion's walls
God He spoke and the chariot stop
God's gonna build up Zion's walls
This is the day of jubilee
God's gonna build up Zion's walls
When God done set His people free
God's gonna build up Zion's walls
Great day
Great day, the righteous marchin'
Great day, God's gonna build up Zion's walls
Take my breastplate, sword in hand
God's gonna build up Zion's walls
March out boldly through the land
God's gonna build up Zion's walls
Want no cowards in our hand
God's gonna build up Zion's walls
Each must be a good, brave man!
God's gonna build up Zion's walls
Great day
Great day, the righteous marchin'
Great day!
God's gonna build up Zion's walls!
Great day!
Great day, the righteous marchin'
Great day!
God's gonna build up Zion's walls!
