Behold we are yet this day in our
Captivity where we're scattered
God of Heaven knows
We're subject to payments
So pay all ya taxes
Don't be offensive no
To the powers that be
What do you think?
Don't they take ya money yea?
Then are the children free?
Oh behold
Behold we are yet this day in our
Captivity where we're scattered
God of Heaven knows

To all the scattered abroad greetings
To all the scattered abroad greetings
To all the scattered abroad greetings
To all the scattered
Ah Lord knows
We been scattered and sold
Across the globe four corners
The prophecy told
I know it may not seem like it
But we the ones God chose
We got Psalms 83 and had our history stole
Uh on them slave ships
Rockin heavy against the waves
LORD redeem us
We tired of these heathens' wicked ways
Swing low sweet chariot we need to be saved
LORD I know YOU hear YOUR children
Cryin from the grave
Oh Jerusalem
Thou that killeth the prophets
Our rebellion got us judged
We left the LORD with no options
Separated families
Sold us off on auctions
Made my granny pick cotton
Our heritage was forgotten
They ain't let us learn to read
Hung us up in trees
Babylon the great you see the blood on the leaves
This place will be destroyed in a space of an hour
All praise to the Most High the one true power
Behold we are yet this day in our
Captivity where we're scattered
