Lyrics

See I was born enslaved, these men they bought and sold me, they found me well behaved, their reason would control me, this creed this land these stones, they had become my master, but doubt lived in my soul, their gods they could not enter, but then one day I heard about a pious man, who spoke amazing words, I'll meet him when I can, it all makes sense to me now, I feel my soul revived, I have the true faith inside, there is only one God, one God, one God, one God, one God, one God, one God, one God, one God, one God, one God, one God, one God, one God, one God, one God, one God, one God,
