Down by the river
Where the willows weep
I found my soul
In waters deep
Echoes of freedom
In every breeze
The sound of hope
Through bending trees
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Raise your voice and sing
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Feel the spirit's wing
Footsteps on the path
To the promised land
Blues of redemption
Hearts in hand
Sunrise so golden
On the bayou's brim
Melodies soaring
With seraphim
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Raise your voice and sing
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Feel the spirit's wing
