(Guitar melodic lick)
(Soft percussion entry)
Yeah, yeah
Listen to the rhythm
It is the time of grace
Walusungu Chiuta, blessings today
The morning sun is rising slow
I see the light begin to glow
I walk along this open road
And carry peace, a lighter load
Everything is steady now
I make a promise, take a vow
To live in rhythm with the sound
Where harmony is always found
Walusungu Chiuta, may the light shine bright
Leading us through the darkest night
Blessings fall like the gentle rain
Healing the heart and easing the pain
Oh, Walusungu, the spirit is near
Bringing us joy and casting out fear
Walking in truth, in this state of mind
Leaving the shadows all far behind
The city moves in steady time
It feels like a rhythm, feels like a rhyme
I look around at faces I know
Watching the steady currents flow
No need to rush, no need to fight
Everything here is feeling right
Just keep the balance, keep the pace
Walking with strength and walking with grace
Walusungu Chiuta, may the light shine bright
Leading us through the darkest night
Blessings fall like the gentle rain
Healing the heart and easing the pain
Oh, Walusungu, the spirit is near
Bringing us joy and casting out fear
Walking in truth, in this state of mind
Leaving the shadows all far behind
Time moves on, we carry the song
Where we belong, where we are strong
Every day is a gift to hold
More precious than silver, brighter than gold
Keep the faith in the gentle sway
Blessings will find you along the way
So let the music carry you high
Beneath the blue of the open sky
It is a feeling, deep and true
Renewing the soul in all that we do
We stay the course, we stay in line
With everything pure and everything fine
Just let it breathe, just let it be
This is the way to be finally free
Walusungu Chiuta, may the light shine bright
Leading us through the darkest night
Blessings fall like the gentle rain
Healing the heart and easing the pain
Oh, Walusungu, the spirit is near
Bringing us joy and casting out fear
Walking in truth, in this state of mind
Leaving the shadows all far behind
Yeah, Walusungu
Keep it steady, keep it light
It is all in the rhythm
Blessings to all
