    May We Forever Stand: This is an audiobook of Imani Perry's book, which tells the history and legacy of "Lift Every Voice and Sing," featuring the lyrics penned by James Weldon Johnson. It is a secondary work about the song, not an official, dedicated audiobook of the poem/hymn text itself.
  • Juvenile Illustrated/Audiobook

    Show details
    Lift ev'ry voice and sing: One search result indicates a Juvenile/Children's audiobook version illustrated by Jan Spivey Gilchrist is available through a library system. This is likely an illustrated reading intended for children and may not be the official, unabridged standalone recording or narration of the text as a work of poetry.

Summary

There is no evidence from searches of official retailers like Audible, Google Play Books, Apple Books, Kobo, OverDrive, Hoopla, or Libby for a standalone, official, unabridged audiobook of the text "Lift Ev'ry Voice and Sing" by James Weldon Johnson. The work is a poem set to music, a hymn, and its primary existence is as sheet music or text. Alternatives found include its inclusion in a larger poetry anthology audiobook titled "I, Too, Sing America", a juvenile audiobook version, and an audiobook titled "May We Forever Stand" which is a historical work *about* the song, not a dedicated narration of the text itself. Therefore, a dedicated, official audiobook for the general public is currently determined to be unavailable.
