Old pirates, yes, they rob us.
Sold I to the merchant ships.
Minutes after they took us
From the bottomless pit.

But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the Almighty.
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly.

So, Won't you help to sing!
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever have!
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 times
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

Won't you help to sing.
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever have!
Redemption songs.
Redemption songs.

Old pirates, yes, they rob us.
Sold I to the merchant ships.
Minutes after they took us
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 have!
Redemption songs.
These songs of freedom?
These songs of freedom?
Redemption songs.
