Help me to free myself Jah

Frpm the chains inside my heart

Help me to rid myself Jah

Of my evil counterparts

Help me to deem myself Jah

To be your humble child

Help me to live upright

And conscious of the times

Give thanks and praises for the blessings in your life

Praises, praises

Give thanks and praises the best is for the wise

Praises, praises

You know my heart is needin

The strength to calm my mind

You know my soul is pleadin

For the peace it cannot find

Help me to free myself Jah

To live the life I sing

Help me to be patient

And thankful for all things

Give thanks and praises for the blessings in your life

Praises, praises

Give thanks and praises cause the best is for the wise

Praises, praises

And all who pushing war

Ah wah dey fighting for

Don't they know in this show

That Jah is de only director

An all who pushing lies

While de poor people cry

Don't they know, don't they know

That they must face the light

Show me thy loving-kindness

So I can show the world

Guide me through this wilderness

Come quench my thirsty soul

Help me to love myself Jah

And love my neighbor just the same

Help me to be grateful

And do good in your name

Give thanks and praises for the blessings in your life

Praises, praises

Give thanks and praises cause the best is for the wise

Praises, praises

And all who pushing war

Ah wah dey fighting for

Don't they know in this show

That Jah is de only director

An all who pushing lies

While poor people cry

Don't they know, don't they know

That they must face the light
