African Blues Lyrics
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
'cause it's not nigga
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 tеmwa)
You′ve granted me wеalth, no matter how empty my pocket is
You light the road even in the dark continent
You say I'm strong and I'm well
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)
