THE LIBERTY BALL
(Jesse Hutchinson)

Come all ye true friends of the nation
Attend to Humanity's call;
Come aid in the slaves' liberation
And roll on the Liberty Ball.

And roll on the Liberty Ball
And roll on the Liberty Ball;
Come aid in the slaves' liberation
And roll on th Liberty Ball.

We're foes unto wrong and oppression,
No matter which side of the sea;
And ever intend to oppose them
Till all of God's creatures are free.

Till all of God's creatures are free etc.

We'll finish the Temple of Freedom
And make it capacious within,
And all who seek shelter may find it
Whatever the hue of their skin.

Whatever the hue of their skin etc.

Success to the old-fashioned doctrine,
That men are created all free;
And down with the power of the despot
Wherever his strongholds may be.

Wherever his strongholds may be etc.

The liberty hosts are advancing,
For freedom to all, they declare;
The downtrodden millions are sighing
Come break up our gloom of despair.

Come break up our gloom of despair etc.
