I say, Emperor God Selassie I the First
Standeth on his own two feet
There is a land far, far away, hey!
Where there's no night, there's only day
Seh, look into the Book of Life and you will see
That there's a land far, far away
That there's a land far, far away
Rise Emperor God Selassie I the First
Jesus Christ in His Kingly character
Now come as a Lamb to be slaughtered
Head who come back a wash (??)
A bull-bucker and duppy conqueror
Alpha and Omega
Carama I I Ashanti I
JAH Rastafari!
King of kings and Lord of Lords
Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah
When the right time come, it a dread 'pon some
Father go fight 'gainst the mother son
Blood, sweat and tears
A wicked man shall flow up with fear
Why who wants some man a go run but to the island
The island seh him a run go somewhere fi hide himself
Man a go go to the sea
And sea a seh him haffi look somewhere fi hide himself
The God Yeshuah, my God, is a jealous God
I must praise no other God but him
If a fish should keep him mouth shut
Him a would a never get caught
Now, eh, if a fish should a keep his mouth shut
Him a would a never get caught
You know, I make mention (???)
That a house is not a house without the dreadlocks
House is not a house without the dreadlocks
When rain a fall, it nah fall 'pon one man's house da
Do it!
So mek we walk and talk with Jah love inna we heart
Walk and talk with Jah Jah love inna we heart
Jah love is like a morning sun
Jah love is like a day just begun
But I say, Aks for the heathen
And that he'll give it for your inheritance
God may I share the truth
I will extol you mighty Father
Cause what profit is there in I and I blood when I go
Down to the pit?
Shall the dust praise thee? Shall it declare thy
Truth?
Hear me O Jah, I call upon thee
I am weak, thou art strong
I lift up mine eyes unto the hills
From whence cometh my help
My help cometh from the LORD God Jah Rastafari
Who ruleth and reigneth in the heart of I and I
God may I share the truth
Meanwhile, man a plan God a wipe-out
So may I show you???
Jah never fail I yet
And anywhere I and I go, I want the whole world to
Know
That Rastafari never fail I yet
I and I burn down lightning and thunder

Blood! 'pon all wicked guy inna earth here
So dat's why me seh
King of kings and the Lord of lords
Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah
Elect of Jah, everlivin' Jah
Earth's rightful ruler without apology
Yes, Jah!
