The Bird Sings Oral Tradition Song Library

I’ve Been in the Storm So Long

A simple, soulful spiritual with two voices. The melody is in the higher voice throughout so I didn’t include another track of that voice alone.

Composer & Copyright

Traditional. In the public domain. This arrangement is based upon an arrangement by Ysaye Barnwell, found in her vocal method book, Singing in the African American Tradition.

Recording

Lyrics

I’ve been in the storm so long (x3)
Oh gimme little time to pray
