SoulAviv: Music
We Who Believe in Freedom
(SoulAviv)
This song is adapted from Bernice Reagon's "Ella's Song". We just gave it a little Jewish soul.
We who believe in freedom cannot rest
We who believe in freedom cannot rest until it comes
Well Moses said to the Pharaoh, boy you better let my people go
I’m taking them home to the Promised Land; I’m taking my people home
Repeat Chorus
When the armies came to conquer, tore our temple to the ground
On a mountain called Masada, we would lay our bodies down
Repeat Chorus
The older I get the better I know that the secret of our going on
Is when the reins are in the hands of the young, who can run against the storm
Repeat Chorus
Repeat Chorus
