Lyrics

[Verse 1]
His mercies endureth for me
Let's rise and shine
And give Jah the glory
His mercy endureth for me
Make me free like a bird in a tree
Let's sing and shout
His praises forever
So the world can see
Give thanks and praise to his majesty
Knowing that he is
The conquering lion
And he can set you free
Jah children open your eyes and see
The meek shall inherit the earth
And the wicked shall get his reward
Promise to give you the world
But don't listen them boys they a fraud
They'll never get away
No, no, no
No, no, no
[Verse 2]
And if you're weary
Tired and heavy laden
Your burden you know he will bear
Jah will protect you so have no fear
You shall be like trees planted by the rivers
Living with humbleness there
No more in bondage your niceness we share
[Verse 3]
The meek shall inherit the earth
And the wicked shall get his reward
Promise to give you the world
But don't listen them boys they a fraud
They'll never get away
No, no, no
Never get away
[Verse 4]
Let us stand and give Jah Jah all the glory
Come let us worship his name
He's yesterday and forever the same
He can never fail
He won't put us to shame
When we call on his name
Remember liberty is not a game
[Verse 5]
The ship of the slaver won't sail and my people are not for sale
Trying to put us in jail but they'll come to no avail
They're bound to fail
You know they're bound to fail
[Verse 6]
Let's rise and shine
And give Jah the glory
His mercy endureth for me
Make me free like a bird in a tree
Let's sing and shout
His praises forever
So the world can see
Give thanks and praise to his majesty
[Verse 7]
Let's rise and shine
And give Jah the glory
His mercy endureth for me
Make me free like a bird in a tree
His mercy endureth for me
Yeah
For all the world to see
You know his mercy endureth for me
