African blues

Jiba inkalapo panyumba yako osa yopa
 Belengani mau mau zene ayopa njoka
 Sleeping sons of Jacob, wake up to your nature
 Rise up like your saviour, show them what you're made of
 Not a slave, not a slave you were fearfully made
 By the ancient of days, let him give you your name
 Coz it's not neither
 I see your beautiful red in the African blues
 I see your blood that was shed to show love for you
 Beautiful red (pamusalaba mwafwile ifwe)
 African blues (Kwena mwalitu temwa)
 Beautiful red (pamusalaba mwafwile ifwe)
 African blues (Kwena mwalitu temwa)
 You've granted me wealth, no matter how empty my pocket is
 You light the road even in the dark continent
 You say I'm stronger than will
 When I feel tied up in bondage
 Road gates tied up with curls
 But you are the driver controlling this all venue
 Close your mouth let the blood speak
 You know the Lord hear my God weep
 Water out your eye and His blood's
 thick love with tight grip and it runs deep
 Grace that is the powerful rule change
 There's no condemnation friend
 nothing is impossible with faith
 I see your beautiful red in the African blues
 I see your blood that was shed to show love for you
 Beautiful red (pamusalaba mwafwile ifwe)
 African blues (Kwena mwalitu temwa)
 Beautiful red (pamusalaba mwafwile ifwe)
 African blues (Kwena mwalitu temwa)
 When you're feeling blue better
 Let go, let God
 Doesn't matter who you are
 Let go, let God
 Rise up Africa
 Let go, let God
 When you're feeling blue better
 Let go, let God
 Doesn't matter who you are
 Let go, let God
 Rise up Africa
 Let go, let God
 (Trust the Lord with all your heart
 Lean not onto your own understanding
 But in all your ways acknowledge Him
 And He shall direct your paths)
