2b. All My Trials

Refrain:
It's late my brothers
It's late, but never mind
All, all my trials Lord, soon be over.

1 If livin' was a thing that money could buy
The rich would live and the poor would die
All, all my trials Lord, soon be over. [Refrain]

2 I had a little book, it was given to me
And each new page spelled liberty
All, all my trials Lord, soon be over. [Refrain]

3 Think, you people, don't you cry
My Lord condemned not, nor do I
All, all my trials Lord, soon be over. [Refrain]

4 See the land across the sea,
And the people crying, come set us free.
All, all my trials Lord, soon be over. [Refrain]
