Lyrics

Redemption Song

Oh pirates, yes, they rob I;

Sold I to the merchant ships

Minutes after they took I

From the bottomless pit

But my hand was made strong

By the hand of the Almighty

We move forward in this generation

Triumphantly

Won't you help me sing

These songs of freedom

'Cause all I ever had:

Redemption songs

Redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;

None but ourselves can free our minds

Have no fear for atomic energy

'Cause none of us can stop the time

How long shall they kill our prophets

While we stand aside and look

Some say it's just a part of it:

We've got to fulfill the book

Won't you help me sing

These songs of freedom

'Cause all I ever had:

Redemption songs

Redemption songs

Redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;

None but ourselves can free our mind

Have no fear for atomic energy

'Cause none of us can stop the time

How long shall they kill our prophets

While we stand aside and look?

Yes, some say it's just a part of it:

We've got to fulfill the book

Won't you help to sing

These songs of freedom?

'Cause all I ever had:

Redemption songs -

All I ever had:

Redemption songs:

These songs of freedom

Songs of freedom
