Intro:
Great is Rastafari and great will be praised

Praise Rastafari more and more
Ever livin ever faithful ever sure

Bless up, inna Zion I di most high dwell up
Bless up, don't get badmind and jealous
Dem sight black people arise and dem head start swell up

Verse 1:
Ah! Poor people blood di wicked man been drinkin
Corruption slavemasters been thinkin
Anyhow I sight dem ship sinkin
Black people they be lynchin and pinchin
Far too long di poor man they been sufferin
Dem hail di king of kings what joy it brings
Mek a jugglin and hustlin nah trouble him
Outta life what mi mek all a livin

Cause when Jah fall him rain every man yard wet up

Verse 2:
Oh! Livin in roam you got to hardcore for real
Stop di yutes from killin and ya stop dem from steal
Teach dem to mek a daily livin and a daily meal
Who caan hear dem a go peal

Oh, burn di wicked and burn out all war monger
Strike di lightning and Jah Jah roll di thunder
Cuss all di wicked man that's under

How could yuh stop a strong man from survive
Till then yuh open up yuh eyes
Only love is di answer, and Rastafari always conquer
In di ship congo lift fi lift di anchor
Farm and farm di food
