(Heavy talking drum beat, slow tempo)
Oh Lord, can You hear the cry?
People dey suffer, everywhere just dry
We need Your light, we need Your hand
Redeem us, Lord, redeem this land
Everything just dey get worse every single day
The common man, e no get power to pay
Fuel subsidy gone, the price hit the sky
How we go survive when the well run dry?
Everywhere just rot, the system is breaking down
We dey look for rescue in this hollow town
But I know You see us, You hear every prayer
Take away this burden, take away the despair
Redeem me from the hand of the enemy
Redeem my people from the misery
From the bad government, from the heavy hand
Lord, bring Your healing to this broken land
Redeem me, Lord, redeem my soul
Make You take control, make You make us whole
I see the hunger, I see the tear in the eye
People dey wonder if You pass them by
But I believe, Lord, You send down Your light
To guide Your children through the darkest night
Let the wicked ones face the judgment seat
Make their evil plans crumble beneath Your feet
We are tired of the struggle, tired of the pain
We are looking for the sun after all this rain
Oh, Father, show Your face
Bring us back to Your saving grace
No more suffering, no more gloom
Make Your glory break through every room
Redeem me from the hand of the enemy
Redeem my people from the misery
From the bad government, from the heavy hand
Lord, bring Your healing to this broken land
Redeem me, Lord, redeem my soul
Make You take control, make You make us whole
And I will sing hallelujah
Hosanna is Your name
Yes, Lord, I will sing hallelujah
Hosanna, Your name is worthy
Redeem us, Lord, redeem our land
