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 forward in this generation triumphantly



Won't you help to 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 them 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



So won't you help to sing

These songs of freedom

Cause all I ever had

Redemption songs

Redemption songs

Redemption songs



Old pirates yes they rob I

Sold I to the merchant ships

Minutes after they took I 

From the bottomless pit

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



So won't you help to sing

These songs of freedom

Cause all I ever had

These songs of freedom

Cause all I ever had

Redemption songs

These songs of freedom

These songs of freedom
