CHORUS
Solidarity forever,
Solidarity forever,
Solidarity forever,
For the union makes us strong.
When the union's inspiration through the workers' blood shall run,
There can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun
Yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one,
But the union makes us strong.
Chorus
It is we who plowed the prairies; built the cities where they trade
Dug the mines and built the workshops, endless miles of railroad laid
Now we stand outcast and starving midst the wonders we have made,
But the union makes us strong.
Chorus
They have taken untold millions that they never toiled to earn,
But without our brain and muscle not a single wheel can turn.
We can break their haughty power, gain our freedom when we learn
That the union makes us strong.
Chorus
In our hands is placed a power greater than their hoarded gold,
Greater than the might of atoms, multiplied a thousand-fold.
We can bring to birth a new world from the ashes of the old
For the union makes us strong.
