Rock Of Gibraltar

Only Jah know
What we pass through
Great tribulation
We pass through
Seven years of famine
We pass through
Tell it to the nation
All over the world
Children of the ghetto
The victim of the system
We are the rock of Gibraltar
These are the days of harvest
Listen to the words of the prophets
How long can the children wait
And the prophets are dying
How long can the nation wait
And the children are crying
Frustration, temptation
In the nation, yes
These are the children
That pass through great tribulation
Jah know
We pass through
Jah know
We pass through
(Jah know)
(Jah know)
Only Jah know
What we pass through
Great tribulation
We pass through
Seven years of famine, come plenty
We pass through
Tell it to the nation
All over the world
Children of the ghetto
The victim of the system
We are the rock of Gibraltar
These are the days of harvest
Listen to the words of the prophets
For we are Jah rock of Gibraltar
Jah know
We pass through
Jah know, yea
We pass through
Temptation
