Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah
Pilgrim through this barren land
I am weak, but Thou art mighty
Hold me in Thy powerful hand
There's a great story out of the negro in America
By the early 1500s, Black explorers were coming to the New World
They came as explorers
[Instrumental Break]
Bread of heaven, bread of heaven
Feed me now 'til I walk alone
Open now the crystal fountain
Whence the healing waters flow
No man wanted to bе a slave
The first negros did not comе to America as slaves
They came as explorers
[Instrumental Break]
As soon as they were landed and sold
Some run away into the forest to join the Indians
No man wanted to be a slave
No man wanted to be a slave
There's a great story out of the negro in America
Lead me all my journey through
Be Thou still my strength and shield
Songs of praises, songs of praises
I will ever give to Thee
No man wanted to be a slave
