The Spirituals are characterized by their powerful and emotive lyrics, which often draw on biblical themes and stories, as well as the experiences of the enslaved people themselves. The music is typically performed a cappella or with minimal accompaniment, and features call-and-response patterns, complex harmonies, and rhythmic improvisation.
This amazing soundtrack is guaranteed to bring joy to anyone who listens and grooves to it.

Wade In The Water Lyrics By The Spirituals
Wade in the water
We dey wade in the water
Children wade in the water
God said he’s gonna trouble the water
Wade in the water
We dey wade in the water
Children wade in the water
God’s gonna trouble the water
We are the sons and the daughters
We gotta stand up and make it loud
Just like our God told the Pharaoh
“Let my people go, go”
We are a new generation
From the ones who have come before
He’s calling us into freedom
Let my people go, go
Wade in the water
We dey wade in the water
Children wade in the water
God said he’s gonna trouble the water
Wade in the water
We dey wade in the water
Children wade in the water
God’s gonna trouble the water
We are the sons and the daughters
We gotta stand up and make it loud
Just like our God told the Pharaoh
“Let my people go, go”
We are a new generation
From the ones who have come before
He’s calling us into freedom
Let my people go, go
We no go shy, no go shame
Ibi your papa God wey, ‘e make the heavens
If you know sey you no want trouble
Let my people go, go
With blood, sweat and tears
That we’ve gathered through the years
If you know sey you no want trouble
Let my people go, go
Wade in the water
We dey wade in the water
Children wade in the water
God said he’s gonna trouble the water
Wade in the water
We dey wade in the water
Children wade in the water
God’s gonna trouble the water
Wade in the water
We dey wade in the water
Children wade in the water
God’s said he’s gonna trouble the water
Wade in the water
We dey wade in the water
Children wade in the water
God’s gonna trouble the water
