Tell Me How Long Lyrics

Canton Spirituals Tell Me How Long

TELL ME HOW LONG Will It Be
Before the children, before they shall be free

Lord I'm tired of being lied on
Tired of being 'buked and scorned, how long
Will it be

Sometimes I'm up and then again I'm down
Sometimes I'm almost level to the ground

Lord I'm tired of being lied on
Tired of being 'buked and scorned, how long Will it be

Sometimes my burdens may seem hard to bear
But I know Jesus is always standing there
Sometimes my days may seem dark as night
But I know Jesus will make everything alright

Walk on, walk on, walk on, yeah
You shall be free, You shall be free, You shall be free
