Oh, pirates, yes, they rob us
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
He fought in this generation
Triumphantly

Won’t you help me sing
These songs of freedom
‘Cause all I ever had
Redemption song

Emancipate yourself from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our mind
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, ooh
Some say it’s just a part of it
We’ve got to fulfill the Book

Won’t you help me sing
These songs of freedom
‘Cause all I ever had
Redemption song

Won’t you help me sing
These songs of freedom
‘Cause all I ever had
Redemption song

All I ever had, woo...
Redemption song
All I ever had
Redemption song

And all I ever, all I ever had, ooh...
Redemption song

Woo, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
Ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...
Whoa...oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...
Redemption song
