Upfulness and Love

Lyrics

Can you spare a moment of your time to save our lands
 Because the open spaces are disappearing, can't you overstand?
 That the poisoning of our oceans will be the end of all mankind
 And desolation and destruction will be all that's left behind
 But if we make a change, rearrange, we can make a land
 Big enough for we, rock and tree, animal and man
 Where our children can grow in the glow of the motherland
 We can make it there, I can show you where
 Oh yeah, 'cause in the purest light of Zion all truth shall reveal
 Oh, Lord, the blackened hearts of those who seek power, lie, cheat and steal
 But if we all will join our hearts and hands together we shall be, oh Lord, yeah
 A body so strong, fighting against all hypocrisy
 And forever we shall live in our hearts, not their history
 And they'll never, never tear us apart with iniquity
 We shall break the chains from the slaves, set our people free
 And I will comfort you and you will shelter me
 And if you fall in line I and I will stop to pick you up
 'Cause I would never leave you behind
 To drink the water from their poison cup, oh-no-no, eh
 Because these times are getting tough
 I said, the road is long and how the river's wide
 But Jah will light the way with his love
 And I will lead you to the other side (oh, yeah)
 ♪
 I have heard the waterfalls weeping as I prayed
 And lord, I felt the sun burn a little bit hotter every day
 But when I look up, and I see the rainbow up in the sky (yeah, Lord Jah)
 It fills the vibes of upfulness and love in I and I, oh-oh
 Father, I never claimed to be a perfect man
 I just want to live clean and be free, yeah
 I know it's a long and winding road ahead
 It's rocky as far as I can see
 Hold on, but I will be with you, and you will be with me
 And if you fall in line I and I will stop to pick you up
 Oh yeah, 'cause I would never leave you behind
 To drink the water from their poison cup, oh-no-no, eh
 Because these times are getting tough
 I said, the road is long and how the river's wide, wide
 But Jah will light the way with his love and I will lead you to the other side
 'Cause I am your protector, your keeper and you are mine
 So it shall be until the end of time, oh Lord
 You are I and I guardian and shepherd, and I am yours
 So it shall be now and forever more, oh, Lord, yeah
 So it shall be now and forever more
 Forever more, forever more, Lord
