Fire in my blood, they tell me pray
Tears in my eyes, they tell me wait
I won't make a move until I pray
But, I don't have another day to wait
Meet me at the river, children pray
But hurry, we don't have time to play
Gone before the morning if we pray
Stars will give us light to guide the way
Shed no tears but cry (freedom)
If I live or die (freedom)
Oh my Lord, I'm coming for my (freedom)
Thousand miles, I'm running for my (freedom)
Shed no tears but cry (freedom)
If I live or die (freedom)
Oh my Lord, I'm coming for my (freedom)
A thousand miles, I'm running for my (freedom)
Live to tell the story if we pray
Mmh, oh yeah I'm coming, children wait
Do it for the glory, God I pray
Either give me freedom or the grave
Meet me by the river, children pray
Talk to God and break away your chains
Rather die free than live a slave
'Cause if I die I know I'll live again
Shed no tears but cry (freedom)
If I live or die (freedom)
Oh my Lord, I'm coming for my (freedom)
Thousand miles, I'm running for my (freedom)
Shed no tears but cry (freedom)
If I live or die (freedom)
Oh my Lord, I'm coming for my (freedom)
A thousand miles, I'm running for my (freedom)
I won't leave you, but we gotta run
Way past the river 'fore the morning comes
The angels in heaven gonna sign your name
If you book your ticket for the freedom train
Oh, hallelujah
Oh, hallelujah
Do it for Your glory, oh God (hallelujah)
Do it for Your glory, oh God (hallelujah)
Shed no tears but cry (freedom) (hallelujah)
If I live or die (freedom) (hallelujah)
Oh my Lord, I'm coming for my (freedom) (hallelujah)
Thousand miles, I'm running for my (freedom) (hallelujah)
Shed no tears but cry (freedom) (hallelujah)
If I live or die (hallelujah)
Oh my Lord, I'm coming for my
