Let My People Go - Griffin House

Well, we sailed across the ocean

'Bout a hundred years ago

And we landed in New England

In the February snow

From the hills of Appellation

To the Kansas Prairie wind

All the way into Selena’s

To the valley of our sin

Somewhere east of Eden

When I’m buried in the ground

I’ll be singing like a guardian

Angel looking down

Let my people go

Let my people go

Let the bells of freedom ring

Let the blood cry from the ground

Let the tribes of every nations

Come and hear that trumpet sound

Somewhere east of Eden

Went to dust I do return

Let the gates of heaven close

And let the hells of fire burn

Let my people go

Let my people go

Take us unto heaven

Write our names upon your hands

I can hear the traitor coming

Rolling through the promise land

Let the stories all come true

Take the sorrow with our heart

Let us sing new song forever

May we never be apart

Let my people go

Let my people go

Let my people go, go, go

Let my people go

Let my people go
