I was playing with microphones and voice effects and needed some harmonies to test them out. I came up with this rather simple melody but really got a kick out of that “free me” part.George Lewe

Lyrics
Oh Lord, give me love true like one word.
Lord give me love, free like a bird.
And free me.
Oh Lord, won’t you please give me love.
Oh Lord, give a woman, honest and true.
Lord give me a woman, doing what she can do.
And free me.
Oh Lord, won’t you please give me a woman.
Oh Lord, give me strength to be a good man.
Lord give me strength to give all I can.
And free me.
Oh Lord, won’t you please give me strength.
Oh Lord, won’t you please.
Lord, won’t you please.
Free me.
Oh Lord, won’t you please free me.
Oh Lord, won’t you please give me love.
Oh Lord, won’t you please give me a woman.
Oh Lord, won’t you please give me strength.
Oh Lord, won’t you please, won’t you please.
