Testi

[Verse 1]
I see them gathered, see them on the shore
I turned to look once more
And he who knows me not takes me to the belly of darkness
[Verse 2]
Tears run swift and hard and when they fall
Even, even the comfort of a stone would be a gain
There was a time when I thought I would have to give up
I'm thankful that I'm as strong as I am
And I'll try to do the best I can
[Verse 3]
Tears will run swift and tears will come that fall like rain
I pray that it's swift, though tears will fall as cold as pain
[Verse 4]
I pray to the Almighty, let me not to him do
As he has done to me
Teach my beloved children who have been enslaved
To reach for the light continually
[Verse 5]
So many times I've prayed
So many times I've prayed for you
Prayed for you
[Verse 6]
The tears runs swift and hard and cold as pain
Even, even the comfort of a stone would be a gain
Had I not the strength and wisdom of a warrior
I would have to give up
But I'm thankful that I'm as strong as I am
And I'll try to do the best I can
[Verse 7]
Tears will run swift and tears will come that fall like rain
I pray that it's swift, though tears will fall as cold as pain
[Verse 8]
I pray to the Almighty, let us not do as he has done to us
Teach my beloved children who have been enslaved
To reach for the light continually
[Verse 9]
Wisdom is the flame
Wisdom is the brave warrior who will carry us into the sun
I pray that it's swift, though tears will come that fall like rain
[Verse 10]
Praise to the almighty Father
Yeah
So many times, so many times
[Verse 11]
This next song was written for my little girl
It's a song about all children
And the light that they carry with them into this world
Written by: Andrew Hale, Helen Folasade Adu, Paul Denman, Stuart Matthewman
