Ninety miles she walked,

towards liberty or death

with God’s voice in her ear.

 

Ninety miles she trudged

through forest and stream

she knew her worth and did not fear.

 

Ninety miles she led her people,

like Moses led the Israelites,

from bondage to a new frontier.

 

Oh, Harriet, 

the struggle continues,

we remember you and persevere.
