Let Freedom Ring

Let Freedom Ring
Here i sit amongst the birds and bees
Telling my woes to the old oak trees
They answer back with the help of the breeze
Reminding me these moments are made to seize
Let Freedom Ring
These words I sing
No plans, No commitments to nail me down
No one who can stop me from where I am bound
No doors or walls to prevent me going as i please
So why can't i enjoy or feel this life of sudden ease
Let Freedom Ring
These words I sing
Passing blame is mute for the result stays the same
No one to blame me and no one to blame
I'll tell you its like mixing water with grease
Trying to find someone who's heart and mind i can please
Let Freedom Ring
These words I sing
I'm not over the hill though more then a half century old
I'll climb the hill slow with no hand to hold
At times I get lonely for a face, voice and ear
But in times all alone its my savior I can hear
Let Freedom Ring
These words I sing
He tells me He loves me ...so I try not to pout
I know He hears whats left of my heart ...of this
I have no doubt
He knows better then me just what I need
All I have to do is open my soil and He'll plant His seed
Let your Freedom Ring
These words I sing
A Thank You to all who came before me to light the way.
May all my descendants remember and for them I do Pray.
Say it loud but say it proud Let Freedom Ring
Feel its glory and these words you will sing.
