Behold JAH

behold JAH power - well, it's Uwe Banton alongside the vanguard leader Fitta Warri

behold JAH grace

behold JAH glory - we want them all to behold Emperor Haile Selassie

behold JAH

behold the power and glory of the only King Of Kings

Chorus:

behold JAH, know what JAH want

come on little children join this song weh we a chant (repeat)

this is a cry for peace

not only inna Jamdown, not just in the middle east

let righteousness cover JAH earth

just like the water covers the sea

so JAH seh - blessed are the pure in heart

for they shall see the father

so JAH seh - blessed are the peacemakers

for they shall be called the children of the Most High

Fitta Warri:

we haffi behold JAH

we are the beholder

stronger and bolder

hotter not colder

Rastafari soldier

telling the young and the older

to free up them hearts and them mind and them soul, yah

JAH no want no silver nor gold, yah

want you to be his follower

that we come a holler, yah

JAH one unuh must follow, yah

can't follow back a lucifer, 'cause him a deceiver

Uwe Banton a sing it with the vanguard leader

'cause nuff a dem still living in the past

on a moment that just won't last

be positive and stop waisting your time

got to open and free up your mind

(Chorus)

Fitta Warri:

hear wah wi tell them, Banton!

mi see seh nuff a dem hard ears and stiff necked

dem wretched, never want behold JAH and get blessed

always disrespecting the prophet dem message

movin' negative, now dem end up like a shredded cabbage

too late now, how dem a go manage

never teach the youths about Selassie I inna dem college

seh dem must behold the Emperor and gain knowledge with courage

and then dem pay dem homage

instead babylon have them living like some hostage

blindfold them eyesight with them brainwash studies

a teach them 'bout Emperor did dead and buried

but we a go reveal it to them that we are varied

Selassie we a behold, He's our rock of all ages

in all stages and phases

worthy to get our praises

a JAH JAH we a behold - a dat we told a dat we told

a JAH JAH we a behold - mi tell them inna english, german and creole

a JAH JAH we a behold - the might a the holy trinity, we hail mighty and bold

(Chorus)

if you rise up early in the morning

watch the sunrise and hear the birds singing

behold JAH take care of everyone of them

so won't you stop your doubting and complaining

Hail RASTAFARI
