[to the tune of “Go Down Moses”
(Let My People Go)]
Words by Paul Stein paulstein@earthlink.net
Immigrants helped build this land.
Let my people stay!
Hear our voices, we demand,
Let my people stay!
[chorus]
No ban! No wall!
Welcome all with love each day!
We take a stand throughout the land.
Let my people stay!
See our faces proud and strong.
Let my people stay!
All faiths and colors, we belong.
Let my people stay! [chorus]
Detention is a travesty.
Let my people stay!
ICE, set our friends and families free!
Let my people stay! [chorus]
Give me your tired, give me your poor.
Let my people stay!
Refugees flock to our shore.
Let my people stay! [chorus]
Together we fight bigotry.
Let my people stay!
Hate threatens peace and liberty.
Let my people stay! [chorus]
