Lyrics
Jesus went into the mountain
Many years ago, His disciples were there
And He began to speak, with new meanings
So very loud and clear
He said, blessed are the poor
For they shall have food
And blessed are the merciful
And the pure in heart
But there shall be no mercy
For the prosecutor, who works in the dark
So let us give praise, Jah Jah children
Let our soul be free, huh!
And let us have faith, Jah Jah children
And our conscience set us free
So when we pray
We must pray for each other
What do we need, but goodness and love
For all our brothers, sisters, huh!
He said, blessed are the poor
For they shall have food
And blessed are the merciful
And the pure in heart
But there shall be no mercy
For the prosecutor, who works in the dark
Come, let us give praise, Jah Jah children
Let our souls be free
And let us have faith, Jah Jah children
Let our hearts be free
And when we pray
We must pray for each other
'Cause what do we need
But goodness and love
For all our brothers, and sisters
To see the light
That shine for tomorrow, huh!
There won't be no sorrow
Let us have love and faith
To carry us all
We must have faith
And we will be strong
