      Where you go-ing, bro-ther?
      Where you go-ing, sis-ter?
      We're go-ing to a land where men are all bro-thers,
      Where love in-stead of hate rules their hearts.
      We're go-ing to a land called Free-dom.
      Go-ing to a land called Free-dom.

      How you gon-na get there, bro-ther?
      How you gon-na get there, sis-ter?
      We're gon-na get there in a ship called Love,
      A ship that must be shared to be of worth.
      That ship's gon-na take us to a land called Free-dom,
      Take us to a land called Free-dom.

      What you gon-na find there, bro-ther?
      What you gon-na find there, sis-ter?

      We'll-find-a-land-where-grass grows green,
      And fra-grant flow-ers bloom e-ter-nal-ly.
      That's-what-it-looks-like-in-that-land-called-Free-dom.
      Beau-ty in a-land-called Free-dom.

      But dee-per beau-ty still ex-ists in that place,
      Where black and white and brown and red and yel-low walk to-ge-ther
      In peace.

      And re-li-gion is no bar-ri-er to love, nor is race.
      Where peo-ple love each o-ther as bro-ther was meant to love bro-ther.
      That's how it is in that land called Free-dom.
      Love in a land called Free-dom.

      Can I go with you bro-ther?
      Can I go with you, sis-ter?
      Free-dom's gates are o-pen, my friend,
      As lo-ving hearts can see.
      Come with us to that land called Free-dom.
      Join us in that land called Free-dom.
