Posted By: Michael Fortson on May 22, 2026 Sharing with you in this post is my hymn setting to the hymn tune “America” entitled “Let Freedom Ring,” appropriate for various times of the year including occasions honoring “Juneteenth” and “Independence Day.” The embedded video contains an interview by GIAMusic where I describe my inspiration to create three stanzas of the hymn setting. The hymn is available at giamusic.com/unbound. Enjoy! If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
