Oh Jah Lyrics - Aswad

Hear what me tell you 

Hear what me say hey 

No jah forsake me not 

This child of Israel feel the pain 

He feels the pangs of hunger too 

Creeping to his stomach 

Oh as inflation rises to the sky-high 

Faster and faster higher and higher 

Faster and faster higher and higher 

Them crises multiply 

Every day the food supply decreasing 

While the population is increasing 

Where are they going to find 

A way to serve mankind 

Every day the energy yes they say 

That it declines 

Where are they going to find 

A way to serve mankind 

No jah forsake me not 

This child of Israel feel the pain 

He feels the pangs of hunger still 

Creeping to his stomach 

Now as the happy young warriors they grow 

Taller and taller wiser and stronger 

Taller and taller wiser and stronger 

They grow now 

And they just laugh off misery 

And they just laugh off hunger 

Because the fruit of their labour 

Jah tell them they must see see see 

Wonder will I wonder will I not going to 

Wonder will I wonder will I not going to 

Wonder will I wonder will I not going to 

Wonder will I wonder will I not going to 

Oh as the happy young warriors yes they grow 

Taller and taller stronger and wiser 

Taller and taller stronger and wiser they grow 

Ina this ya Babylon 

Where are they going'to find 

A way to serve mankind 

No Jah forsake me not this child of Israel feel the pain 

He feels the pangs of hunger too creeping to his stomach 

No Jah forsake me not 

I trod through the streets of Babylon 

And I fear not though I walk in the shadow of the wicked dem 

Jah will guide and protect I still so I can trod on 

No Jah forsake me not 

Some men and people who try to crucify 

Selassie I and them going pay the price
