Listen To Negro Spirituals On-Line

Nobody knows de trouble I see

 

Oh Freedom

 

Tryin’ to get ready

 

And he never said a mumberlin’ word

 

Joshua fit de battle ob Jericho

 

I’m a rollin’

 

Po’ pilgrim of sorrow; or, A city called Heaven

 

Steal Away

 

Ev’ry time I feel the spirit

 

Listen to the Angels shouting

 

My Lord, what a mourning

 

I want to be ready; or, walk in Jerusalem just like John

 

Go down Moses

 

A little more faith in Jesus

 

Deep River

 

'Tis the old ship of Zion

 

Nobody knows the trouble I’ve seen

 

Swing low, sweet chariot

 

Great Day!

 

A little more faith in Jesus

 

Deep River
