Lyrics

Hear me Lord
Lord, my people wanna be free
Just like the blind would like to see
But the hotter the battle will be
The sweeter the victory
Give us faith to face another day
Guide the sinner now, to long the narrow way
Give us strength, dear Lord, I pray
That we shall overcome someday
Alright Lord
Give an 'elping hand
To each and everyone
We do all the work each and every day
And still for all we don't get no pay
But I know that things won't last this way
'Cause we shall overcome someday
Lord, my people wanna be free
Just like the blind would like to see
But the hotter the battle will be
The sweeter the victory
We, ooh
