1 Oh, freedom, oh, freedom,
oh, freedom over me,

Refrain:
and before I'd be a slave,
I'll be buried in my grave,
and go home to my Lord, and be free.

2 No more moaning, no more moaning,
no more moaning over me, [Refrain]

3 There'll be singing, there'll be singing,
there'll be singing over me, [Refrain]

4 There'll be shouting, there'll be shouting,
there'll be shouting over me, [Refrain]

5 There'll be praying, there'll be praying,
there'll be praying over me, [Refrain]
