I pray to the Almighty
Let me not to him do as he has unto me
Teach my beloved children, I've been a slave
I pray that it's swift though
Even, even the comfort of a stone would be a gain
Tears will fall as cold as pain
So many times I prayed
And tears will come that fall like rain
But I'm thankful that I'm strong as I am
But I'm thankful that I'm strong as I am
I would have to give up
Tears run swift
Wisdom is the flame
Tears run swift
Even, even the comfort of a stone would be a gain
And tears will come that fall like rain
I would have to give up
Tears will come that fall like rain
I pray that it's swift though
The tears run swift and hard and when they fall
I pray that it's swift though
Tears will fall as cold as pain
Teach my beloved children who have been enslaved
I pray to the Almighty
The tears run swift and hard and cold as pain
But reach for the light continually
To reach for the light continually
And I'll try to do the best I can
Had I not the strength and wisdom of a warrior
And he who knows me not
Prayed for you
And I'll try to do the best I can
Takes me to the belly of darkness
Wisdom is the brave warrior
Let us not do as he has unto us
So many times I've prayed for you
Who will carry us into the sun
There was a time when I thought
