Love this song!! However, it doesn’t make me long for equality and freedom here on earth!! It makes me fight for my final destination: Heaven!! God said that He’s prepared a place for me; by all means, I want to see it, feel it, and walk in it!! I know that everyone wants to bask in the riches of this world but I want to bask in the richness of God’s righteousness! Knowing that I have the opportunity to make it just by following His commandments makes the fight here on earth more serious and worth it.
The white men/woman can hate my skin, and lynch my body, but something that never belonged to any man or woman is my soul!! That’s to God and God alone.
Men can take advantage of the weakness of love and take that which God gave me as a gift to my husband…but one thing he can't take is my soul!! That and my new body that will be purified, forgetting all that has been damaged, will be for God and God alone!
So I will as a black woman stand up and take my people be it gender, race, belief, young and old to a brand new home!! I can only invite you to get on the road to freedom. The rest is up to you!!
