Lyrics
INTRO:
Give praises to the King of all Kings
Praises to the Lord of all Lords
Glory to the Conquering Lion of the tribe of Judah (oh, yes)
Elect of Jah
Light of this world
Earth\'s rightful ruler (yeah)
CHORUS:
We\'re blessed now rise to see another day
So be joyful keep a smile upon your face
Give Jah praises for now then and always
Up ye mighty race keep the fire blaze
We\'re blessed now rise to see another day
So be joyful keep a smile upon your face
Give Jah praises for now then and always
Up ye mighty race keep the fire blaze
VERSE 1:
Jah love we all the same there is no difference
Tender mercies are apart of His magnificence
Jah is the standard for Royalty and Excellence
Give him thanks and praise for your existence
Songs of righteousness alone will be my utterance
I have no fear when heathen put up dem resistance
For I know King Selassie I is my deliverance
Lightning and Thunder buss louder than dem sixpance (hey)
CHORUS:
We\'re blessed now rise to see another day
So be joyful keep a smile upon your face
Give Jah praises for now then and always
Up ye mighty race keep the fire blaze
We\'re blessed now rise to see another day
So be joyful keep a smile upon your face
Give Jah thanks (yes) for now then and always
Up ye mighty race keep the fire blaze
VERSE 2:
Shout it inna di streets and the mountains Jah gave I life (yes)
Immense amount ah joy
Singing praise to the King in order to leave a conscious highlight
While some rather to destroy
Trod anyweh inna Mama Earth whether day or night
Confident that Jah is by my side
Shew forth your obedience and do what you know is right
And you\'ll nothing to hide
CHORUS:
We\'re blessed now rise to see another day
So be joyful keep a smile upon your face
Give Jah praises for now then and always
Up ye mighty race keep the fire blaze
We\'re blessed now rise to see another day
So be joyful keep a smile upon your face
Give Jah praises for now then and always
Up ye mighty race keep the fire blaze
BRIDGE:
Keep the fire blazing
Keep the fire burning
(Oh yeah)
VERSE 1 REPEAT:
Jah love we all the same there is no difference
Tender mercies are apart of His magnificence
Jah is the standard for Royalty and Excellence
Give him thanks and praise for your existence
Songs of righteousness alone will be my utterance
I have no fear when heathen put up dem resistance
For I know King Selassie I is my deliverance
Lightning and Thunder buss louder than dem sixpance (hey)
