We've got some difficult days ahead.
But it doesn't matter with me now.
Because I've been to the mountaintop.
And I don't mind. Like any man,
I would like to live a long life.
Longevity has its place.
But I'm not concerned about that now.

And He's allowed me to go up to the mountain.

And I've seen the promised land.

But I want you to know tonight, that we,
as a people, will get to the promised land.
