Lyrics

I'm on my way
To freedom land
I'm on my way
Oh, to freedom land
I'm on my way
Freedom land
I'm on my way
Great god all mighty
I'm on my way
I asked my brother
Oh, to come with me
I asked my brother
Oh, to come with me
I asked my brother
Come with me
I'm on my way
Great god all mighty
I'm on my way
I asked sister
Wont you go with me
I asked my sister
Come go with me
I asked my sister
To go with me
I'm on my way
Great all mighty
I'm on my way
If they say no
I'll go alone
If they say no
I'll go alone
If they say no, no, no, no
I'll go alone
I'm on my way great god all mighty
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
And I won't turn back
I'm on my way
Oh, and I won't turn back
I'm on my way
Mmm I won't turn back
I'm on my way
Praise god
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
Oh,I won't turn back
I'm on my way
I won't turn back
I'm on my way
Hey
I won't turn back no, no, no
I'm on my way
Praise god
I'm on my way
