I am the offspring of David, black is the colour of my skin
Ya see ma pain, doh I man still a grin
400 years of slavery, that's what they brought my people in
In chains and shaks on ocean ships ah swim
Now I and I brave and bold
My mind did take control, pray to Jah when I energy low
Bless I, gives I mercy, ever quench I thirst when I thirsty
So that I can face atrocities
I give you thanks oh Jah Jah
For you alone can give I life forever
Oh yes I thank you Jah Jah
For your teachings I man will treasure
I give you thanks oh Jah
For you alone can give I life forever
Oh yes I thank you Jah Jah
For your teachings I man will treasure
Chapter a day is what I man say
The teaching of the truth the only truth its in the Bible, here my youth
My soul it crys out for Jah Jah
Louder and louder as I get stronger
My noise I behold the King
Here when I man sing, all clean when I step in
I trod your ways as I wear your crown oh Jah
As I call on the emperor
I give you thanks oh Jah Jah
For you alone can give I life forever
Oh yes I thank you Jah Jah
For your teachings I man will treasure
I give you thanks oh Jah
For you alone can give I life forever
Oh yes I thank you Jah Jah
For your teachings I man will treasure
Jah Jah you are my only
You always take care of me
Show I your mercies oh Jah
I na question when you give I da answer
Your divine and is always my provider
In the desert Iand I will never suffer
Your ways are always before me
And so you keep me from my enemies
