Can you spare a moment of your time to save our lands
‘Cause the open spaces are disappearing, can’t you overstand
That the poisoning of our oceans will be the end of all mankind
And desolation and destruction will be all that’s left behind

But if we make a change, rearrange, we can make a land
Big enough for we, rock and tree, animal and man
Where our children can grow in the glow of the Motherland
We can make it there, I can show you where

‘Cause in the purest light of Zion all truth shall reveal
The blackened hearts of those who seek power, lie, cheat and steal
But if we all will join our hearts and hands together we shall be
A body so strong, fighting against all hypocrisy

And forever we shall live in our hearts, not their history
And they’ll never never tear us apart with iniquity
We shall break the chains from the slaves, set our people free
And I will shelter you and you will comfort me

[Chorus]
And if you fall in line I and I will stop to pick you up
‘Cause I would never leave you behind
To drink the water from their poison cup
‘Cause these times are getting tough
The road is long and how the river’s wide
But Jah will light the way with His Love
And I will lead you to the other side
I have heard the waterfalls weeping as I prayed
Felt the sun burn a little bit hotter every day
But when I look up and I see the rainbow up in the sky
It fills the vibes of upfulness and Love in I and I

But Father I never claimed to be a perfect man
I just want to live clean and be free
I know its a long and winding road ahead
It's rocky as far as I can see
But I will be with you and you will be with me

[Chorus]
And if you fall in line I and I will stop to pick you up
‘Cause I would never leave you behind
To drink the water from their poison cup
‘Cause these times are getting tough
The road is long and how the river’s wide
But Jah will light the way with His Love
And I will lead you to the other side

‘Cause I am your protector, your keeper and you are mine
So it shall be until the end of time
You are I and I guardian and shepherd and I am yours
So it shall be now and forIver more
