Intro] (
Chale,
listen
to
the
heartbeat
of
the
land) (
Lord,
hear
the
cry
of
your
children)
[Verse 1] Oh
Father
God,
I
come
before
your
throne
Oh
Father
God,
I
come
before
your
throne
A
tiny
voice,
but
I’
m
not
standing
all
alone
The
shadows
hover,
moving
o'er
the
land
Dark
forces
rising,
can
we
even
stand?
I
feel
the
burden,
heavy
in
my
chest
Our
beautiful
Zambia
searching
for
some
rest
Lord,
look
upon
us,
hear
our
whispered
plea
We’
re
crying
out
for
peace
to
set
us
free
[Chorus] Oh
Lord,
fight
this
war
for
us
today
Oh
Lord,
fight
this
war
for
us
today
Let
the
darkness
turn
and
fade
away
As
one
nation,
we
join
our
hands
in
prayer
Cast
away
the
burden
that
we
cannot
bear
Oh
Zambia,
lift
your
head
up
to
the
sky
With
God
our
protector,
we
will
never
die
[Verse 2] We
look
for
leaders,
seeking
common
good
But
they
grab
the
wealth,
misunderstood
We’
re
living
poor
while
they
build
their
walls
Ignoring
every
time
the
nation
calls
Dear
citizens,
resist
the
bitter
seed
Don’
t
let
the
evil
grow
from
greed
and
need
And
media,
please,
don’
t
incite
the
flame
We’
re
one
people,
call
us
by
one
name
[Chorus] Oh
Lord,
fight
this
war
for
us
today
Let
the
darkness
turn
and
fade
away
As
one
nation,
we
join
our
hands
in
prayer
Cast
away
the
burden
that
we
cannot
bear
Oh
Zambia,
lift
your
head
up
to
the
sky
With
God
our
protector,
we
will
never
die
[Bridge] Being
a
refugee
is
hell
and
mental
pain
We
don’
t
want
to
see
this
land
in
rain
We
only
have
one
home,
one
place
to
stay
Maranatha,
Lord,
come
down
today!
Lord
Jesus
come
down
and
manifest
your
power
dear
Lord
come
down
and
manifest
your
power
Maranatha,
Lord,
come
down
today!
Lord
Jesus
come
down
and
manifest
your
power
dear
Lord
come
down
and
manifest
your
power (
Oyiwa!
Manifest
your
power,
Lord)
[Verse 3] Let
peace
return
to
every
street
and
town
Let
love
be
the
crown
that
we
pass
around
From
Lusaka
to
the
borders,
far
and
wide
We’
ll
stand
together,
side
by
side
Chop
life
with
peace,
not
with
hate
or
war
Open
up
the
blessing,
open
up
the
door
[Chorus] Oh
Lord,
fight
this
war
for
us
today
Let
the
darkness
turn
and
fade
away
As
one
nation,
we
join
our
hands
in
prayer
Cast
away
the
burden
that
we
cannot
bear
Oh
Zambia,
lift
your
head
up
to
the
sky
With
God
our
protector,
we
will
never
die
[Outro] Come
down,
manifest
your
power (
Eii!)
Zambia,
we
are
one
people (
Yoo!)
Stay
strong,
keep
the
faith (
Chale!)
Lord,
we
thank
you,
medasi.
One
country,
one
heart,
one
home.
