“Simple Song of Freedom” is the tenth of 12 tracks on the 1973 album He’s Able by the People’s Temple Choir.
Lyrics from the 1973 vinyl published by Brotherhood Records.
[Verse 1]
Come and sing a simple song of freedom
Sing it like you've never sung before
Let it fill the air, tell the people everywhere
We the people here want war no more!
[Verse 2]
Hey there, Mr. Rich Man, can you hear me?
I don't want your diamonds or your gain
I just want to be someone known to you as "me,"
And if you're honest you will want the same
[Verse 3]
Seven hundred million are in misery
And most of what we read is made of lies
Speak it one to one, ain't it everybody's sun?
Wait until the morning when we rise!
[Verse 4]
Some folks enjoy doing battle
Like presidents, prime ministers, and kings
So let us build them shells
And let them fight among themselves
And leave us be we who want to serve
