Freedom (Top Ten Edit) Lyrics

Ain't got no halo, no wings to fly away
I've got to labor, for many many days
I'm on a journey, I'm looking for a place
To rest by burdens, far from this tyrannyFrom the shores of Africa
Up to the doors of America
With voices to Heaven praying for libertyWe cry freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)
Said we cry freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)
Yeah we cry freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)
Yeah we cry freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)We marched in 'Bama
We marched in Tennesee
Brown men and white men
Stood for equalityWe kept our chin up
We kept our dignity
And our proclamation

Let everbody singFrom the shores of Africa
Up to the doors of America
With voices to Heaven praying for libertyWe cry freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)
Said we cry freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)
Lord we've got freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)
Yeah we cry freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)Up on Golgotha, hangin' upon a tree
They say the God-man, died for my libertyHe heard me crying
From my captivity
And so he came down
Down to deliver meWoah, woah, woah, woahFrom the shores of Africa
Up to the doors of America
With voices to Heaven praying for libertyWe cry freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)
Said we cry freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)
Said we cry freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)
Oh we cry freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)Our hearts cry freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)
My heart cries freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)
Your heart cries freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)
His heart cries freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)
