Praises

Intro
CHORUS:
Lift up your voice and rejoice
Praises is due on to H.I.M.
Lift up your voice and sing
Praises to the king of kings

It name six days of work and then keep the Sabbath
Earthquake, lightning, brimstone and clap
Judgment come off them plate inna the lap
Look how much doors should a open and yet still them locked
Babylon hampa the youth them and keeping them back
Instead of feed up the children them keeping them starved
Slaughter the innocent sheep and cow calf
Then them reap from the profits sit back and then laugh
Swear say them got it but them don’t know the half

CHORUS

It name observe the Sabbath and keep it holy
Earth is the Lord and Jah is the glory
King Emmanuel the seventh and Marcus Garvey
Say study all the aims and know your history
Or you will die like a slave in a cloud of mystery
Set up some business inna the industry
Create some jobs and some opportunity
Educate the children cause it’s necessary
Help out the people in the community
Take them out the jailhouse and the penitentiary

CHORUS

That’s why me naw get hoarse & burn out like some old cigar
Follow the road that lead me to Jah
Nuff a turn aside and naw follow Jah law
That’s why the wicked man clutching at a straw
Naw defend naw justice naw defend naw peace
Have to conquer the devil have to slaughter the beast
Stand up for righteousness and love will increase
Take over the North, South, West, & East

CHORUS
