"Michael Rowed the Boat Ashore" is a folk song that originated among African American slaves in the 19th century. It became popular among the civil rights movement in the 1960s, and has been covered by many artists since then.
The lyrics are simple and repetitive, with each verse following the same pattern:
Michael row the boat ashore, Hallelujah Michael row the boat ashore, Hallelujah
The river Jordan is deep and wide, Hallelujah Milk and honey on the other side, Hallelujah
The song is believed to have religious significance, with "Michael" representing the archangel Michael who is often associated with protection and bravery. The boat is thought to symbolize safety and deliverance from troubles.
Despite its origins in slavery, "Michael Rowed the Boat Ashore" has become a beloved song for many people, and is often performed at religious services and gatherings.
