Songs of Freedom Songtext

von Judy Bailey

Oh yeah, yeah, wo yay, oh
Songs of freedom songs
That save my soul

Ancient echoes of my past
Bring light and life to me
The same old song that my mother sang
Was a song that set me free

Deep in the night she would rock her child
Singing over me
The very same song her mother sang
The prayers of centuries

The cry was freedom
All the way
Feel it in the music
Hear it in the words I sing

Oh yeah, yeah, wo yay, oh
Songs of freedom songs
That save my soul

And when the pain of yesterday
Plagues my memory
My song is a light to chase
The lies the past is telling me

I lift my head up to the sky
And suddenly I see
I know the truth, I know myself
And I know my destiny

The cry is freedom
All the way
Feel it in the music
Hear it in the words I sing

Oh yeah, yeah, wo yay, oh
Songs of freedom songs
That save my soul

I know their worth
I know their worth
