Oh, Freedom
Original Key: G Major MP3
This famous civil rights anthem is fun to sing, with stirring, powerful lyrics. A rubato piano introduction for a soloist is followed by six uptempo verses for the congregation or choir, accompanied by a full band.
Soloist: Oh, freedom, oh freedom,
oh, freedom, over me (over me),
and before I'd be a slave, I'd be buried in my grave,
and go home to my God and be free.
Choir/Congregation: Oh, freedom, oh freedom,
oh, freedom, over me (over me),
and before I'd be a slave, I'd be buried in my grave,
and go home to my God and be free.
No more mournin', no more mournin',
no more mournin' over me (over me),
and before I'd be a slave, I'd be buried in my grave,
and go home to my God and be free.
No more cryin', no more cryin',
no more cryin' over me (over me),
and before I'd be a slave, I'd be buried in my grave,
and go home to my God and be free.
Oh, freedom, oh freedom,
oh, freedom, over me (over me),
and before I'd be a slave, I'd be buried in my grave,
and go home to my God and be free.
There'll be singin', there'll be singin',
there'll be singin' over me (over me),
and before I'd be a slave, I'd be buried in my grave,
and go home to my God and be free.
Oh, freedom, oh freedom,
oh, freedom, over me (over me),
and before I'd be a slave, I'd be buried in my grave,
and go home to my God and be free.
