Lyrics to | "What's My Name?"
WHAT’S MY NAME?
I’ve roamed this whole world over Been immersed in sin and shame No man’s feet I’ve not been under What’s my name?
I’ve been chained, whipped and beaten Slavery’s my only fame
Even my soul the nations plunder What’s my name?
What’s my name, Who could care? For none doth stand with me
I alone have to bear my grief and misery.
Comes the day my G-D is tired Way the heathens use his name And he’ll tear my bonds asunder Then you’ll hear when I proclaim Israel, Israel, Israel is my name.
