My People Are Free

"My People Are Free"

(performed by Samm Henshaw)

(from "Harlem Is Mine" soundtrack)

Ran down to the river

We're heading home

Trace out through the water

With Heavens hope

Hold on to the river

It won't be long

My Lord is waiting

With open arms

Oh, freedom

A way to my people are free

We cry freedom

Hope these change won't carry me

Oh, freedom (freedom, freedom, freedom)

We cry, we cry, we cry, we cry

Oh, freedom (freedom, freedom, freedom)

Don't fall into worries

Our time is now

Spent too long in our sorrows

With heavy clouds

Now shower in the pouring rain

See the light that can guide my way

All invasive

Nothing change

We will be here to stay

Freedom

Wait until our people are free

Oh freedom (freedom, freedom, freedom, oh)

Oh Lord

Oh freedom (freedom, freedom, freedom, oh)

We will cry out freedom (freedom, freedom, freedom, oh)

Oh freedom
