(Gentle
acoustic
guitar
picking,
rhythmic
percussion
kicks
in)
Oh,
listen
to
the
heartbeat
of
the
land
We
hold
the
future
in
our
open
hands
For
every
girl
and
boy
across
the
plains
Let
us
break
the
heavy,
silent
chains
Walking
through
the
streets
of
Lusaka
town
Looking
at
the
faces,
never
let
them
down
The
sun
is
shining
on
the
Copperbelt
today
We
must
ensure
they
find
a
better
way
No
more
shadows
hiding
in
the
dark
of
night
We
are
the
guardians
of
the
morning
light
From
the
Zambezi
to
the
city
square
We
show
the
children
that
we
truly
care
Protect
the
children,
keep
them
safe
and
sound
Let
love
and
laughter
be
the
only
ground
No
more
abuse,
let
every
heart
be
free
In
Zambia,
they
are
our
legacy
Oh,
protect
the
children,
keep
them
safe
and
sound
Let
love
and
laughter
be
the
only
ground
No
more
abuse,
let
every
heart
be
free
In
Zambia,
they
are
our
legacy
Education
is
the
key
to
open
doors
Give
them
the
strength
to
stand
upon
the
floors
Give
them
the
strength
to
stand
upon
the
floors
Strong
and
steady,
growing
in
the
grace
Putting
a
smile
upon
every
single
face
Community
together,
side
by
side
we
stand
Building
a
shield
across
our
blessed
land
If
we
see
the
trouble,
we
will
speak
the
word
Making
sure
that
every
cry
of
help
is
heard
Protect
the
children,
keep
them
safe
and
sound
Let
love
and
laughter
be
the
only
ground
No
more
abuse,
let
every
heart
be
free
In
Zambia,
they
are
our
legacy
Oh,
protect
the
children,
keep
them
safe
and
sound
Oh,
protect
the
children,
keep
them
safe
and
sound
Let
love
and
laughter
be
the
only
ground
No
more
abuse,
let
every
heart
be
free
In
Zambia,
they
are
our
legacy
It
takes
a
village
to
raise
up
a
soul
Keeping
them
happy,
making
them
whole
We
rise
together,
we
rise
as
one
Until
the
work
of
healing
is
finally
done (
Guitar
solo,
melodic
and
flowing)
So
let
the
message
travel
through
the
breeze
Across
the
rivers
and
the
mango
trees
Every
child
is
precious,
every
child
is
gold
Stories
of
hope
waiting
to
be
told
We
build
a
future
that
is
bright
and
clear
Removing
every
trace
of
doubt
and
fear
This
is
our
promise,
this
is
our
command
To
keep
them
safe
throughout
the
motherland
Protect
the
children,
keep
them
safe
and
sound
Let
love
and
laughter
be
the
only
ground
No
more
abuse,
let
every
heart
be
free
In
Zambia,
they
are
our
legacy
Oh,
protect
the
children,
keep
them
safe
and
sound
Let
love
and
laughter
be
the
only
ground
No
more
abuse,
let
every
heart
be
free
In
Zambia,
they
are
our
legacy
Safe
and
sound,
yeah
In
the
land
of
the
rising
sun
Our
children,
our
future
Keep
them
safe,
keep
them
free (
Fading

acoustic
guitar
melody)
