I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh, and just like the river I've been running ever since
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gon' come
Oh yes, it will
It's been too hard living, not afraid to die
Oh, I know there's a home prepared for me beyond the skies
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know my change gon' come
Oh yes, it will
I stopped going to the movies, now I go to church
Oh, so many people I've broken, so many loved ones I hurt
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gon' come
Oh yes, it will
Then I go to my brother
Saying, "Brother, help me please", oh
But then he wind up knockin' me
Right down on my knees
There were times that I thought I wouldn't last very long
Oh, but now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know my change gon' come
Oh yes, it will
Help me now
My change gon' come (my change gonna come)
Yes, it will
My change gon' come (my change gonna come)
Yes, it will
(My change gonna come) I will not wait in the valley no more
(My change gonna come) I know my body will be healed, yeah
(My change gonna come) just like brother Job, I will, yeah
(My change gonna come) I know I'm gonna get a job soon, yeah
(My change -) I know that food would be on the table
Oh, my change, ah-oh, my change
My change, my change, my, my, my, my, my, my
My change gonna come
Oh, I know it will, it will, it will, hallelujah
Glory, hallelujah
