Spirituals

 
 
                                Rocks and the firm roots of trees.
                                The rising shafts of mountains.
                                Something strong to put my hands on.

                                            Sing, 0 Lord Jesus!
                                            Song is a strong thing-
                                            I heard my mother singing
                                            When life hurt her:

                               Gonna ride in my chariot some day!

                                            The branches rise
                                                From the firm roots of trees.
                                            The mountains rise
                                                From the solid lap of earth.
                                            The waves rise
                                                From the dead weight of sea.
                                  Sing, 0 black mother!
                                  Song is a strong thing.
