Lyrics:
I been walkin' with my face turned to the sun
Weight on my shoulders, bullet in my gun
Oh, I got eyes in the back of my head just in case I have to run
I do what I can when I can while I can for my people
While the clouds roll back and the stars fill the night
That's when I'm gonna stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going to a brand new home
Far across the river
Can you hear freedom calling?
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
I can feel it in my bones
Early in the mornin' before the sun begins to shine
Gonna start movin' towards that separating line
I'm wading through muddy waters, you know I got a made-up mind
And I don't mind if I lose any blood on the way to salvation
And I'll fight with the strength that I got until I die
So I'm gonna stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going to a brand new home
Far across the river
Can you hear freedom calling?
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
And I know what's around the bend
Might be hard to face 'cause I'm alone
And I just might fail, but Lord knows I tried
Sure as stars fill up the sky
Stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going to a brand new home
Far across the river
Can you hear freedom calling?
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
I'm gonna stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going to a brand new home
Far across the river
Do you hear freedom calling?
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
I'm gonna stand up
Take my people with me
Together we are going to a brand new home
Far across the river
I hear freedom calling?
Calling me to answer
Gonna keep on keepin' on
I can feel it in my bones
I go to prepare a place for you

Harriet earned the name Moses as a tribute to her bravery, audacity and willpower. During her many missions to rescue 70 slaves, she depended on God's support and guidance through her prayers and visions. As we watched the closing credits, we thought of Harriet's speech and her final encounter with the plantation owner's who for years has been on a crusade to capture, torture and kill her.

[@LeoValdezIsMine]

AS SHE SHOULD

[@wordforger]

This is one of those few songs that gets me all choked up because it's so real. I think of "Moses" and those in bondage who fled to freedom, or never made it... But the fight for freedom lives on.

I think people forget that due to the first sin God doesn’t just solve all the problems in the world 😐 that was essentially the garden of Eden but after Adam and Eve were cast out of there the world was no longer like that. Yes God is Great but he doesn’t just take away all suffering and pain from the world. That only comes when the second coming occurs. At the end of the day bad things still happen in the world but when we trust in God he can get us through them. Also it’s pretty disrespectful to call God “sky daddy” if you don’t believe in God fine but please don’t disrespect my God like that it’s pretty rude. Harriet was also deeply inspired and beloved in God. A lot of what she did, freeing the slaves, was inspired by reading learning about Moses in the Bible and how he brought his people to freedom.

This song may have been intended to talk about Harriet Tubman. However, I think it’s fabulous that everyone is seeing their own interpretations in it. They may not be the original interpretation, but I love seeing the people in the comments saying “Free Palestine” “End police brutality” “Women’s rights” If you can draw strength from this song, and apply it to the things you believe are important, that’s wonderful.

Based on the thrilling and inspirational life of an iconic American freedom fighter, Harriet tells the extraordinary tale of Harriet Tubman's escape from slavery and transformation into one of America's greatest heroes. Her courage, ingenuity and tenacity freed hundreds of slaves and changed the course of history.

Harriet Tubman earned the name mosses after everything she did and held tightly onto God she’s was the miracle people needed and asked for GOD BLESS HER ❤❤

[@marvildegayoaquino1597]

Harriet Tubman was one of the great American heroes of the nineteenth century. Showing remarkable courage, she guided over 300 fellow slaves to freedom after she first escaped slavery by crossing into free territory in the United States North. Not content to simply enjoy her freedom, she ventured back into slave states nineteen times to lead friends, family and strangers to freedom, sometimes guiding people on foot all the way to Canada.
