Trail of Tears / Amazing Grace by Native American Flutist, Charles Littleleaf
Vocals in Cherokee also by him.
The following information I got from the internet.
Amazing Grace was written by John Newton, an Englishman who had been in turn a slave and a slave-trader. Seventy years later, across the Atlantic, thousands of displaced Cherokees sang the hymn as they were herded along the tragic Trail of Tears.
Trail of Tears, also known as the beautiful Amazing Grace performed on the Native American flute by award winning recording artist and custom flute maker, Charles Littleleaf.
Trail of Tears song lyrics:
God's son
paid for us
then to heaven He went
after paying for us.
But He said,
When He rose,
"I'll come again"
He said when He spoke.
All the earth will end
when He comes.
All will see him
All over the earth.
All the good people living
He will come after.
Heaven always,
in peace they will live.
