GospelSongLyrics.org: Father How Long lyrics
Please rate this Gospel song:
Tell me, my father
Tell me how long
Will boys keep dyin'
For freedom's song?
Before we find
A place to belong?
Tell me, my father
How long?
Won't bow to no man
I got my pride
This dream I'm dreamin'
Can't be denied.
How long
Till I can sing freedom's song?
Tell me, my father
How long?
I cry my tears
The same as any man you see
So God
Please tell me why
This man ain't free?
No more this darkness
Bring me the light
Show me your mornin'
Cast off this night.
How long
Till I can sing freedom's song?
Tell me my father
Tell me my father
Tell me my father
How long?
