Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now blessed is the lord thy God and blessed all thee that
Do his work.
And he receiveth who have recieveth who have sent we.
And he receiveth who have sent thee and recieveth the
Lord thy God
Cocoa Tea, Garnett Silk and Carlie Chaplin, Do it!
Giving i-ses to Haile Selassie the 1st
Easy Cocoa Tea, Chaplin
Knee Shall bow and every tongue shall tell, Jah he is the
Highest
Father thanks for all that you have done
And for what you're doing now, well
I'm not saying I might not be wrong again
But I promise this time I'll be a better friend
Every knee shall, Every Every Every Every, Every knee
Shall.
(Chaplin)
Every mawning mi get up mi unda God vibe
Pray fi di wicked man ship fi capsize
Mi wa dem realize only God mi recognize
Remember di 10 virgin weh chastise
5 did a fool and 5 ah dem wise
Somebody pee inna water bout dem baptize
But come in Cocoa Tea cah we nah compromise
Give thanks and praises to Selassie- I the King.
(Oh nah yes)
For all the loving and the joy he brings (mmm mm)
He guide and protect us along the way
Making provision for us everyday
So on your knees, every ____ life must pray
You hear what I say
I can't thank you enough mighty shepherd
Your love can't be measured
There are no words to describe you
But we bless thee for your everlasting shield
Knee shall, every every every every knee shall.
(Principal principal)
Emperor God Selassie the 1st
Jesus Christ in his kingly character
Nuh come as a lamb to be slaughtered
Head cook and bokkle wash and bull buck and duppy

Alpha and Omega, Acadama iiba, Ashanti I, Jah!
Rastafari liveth in the heart of I and I, (Jah!)
Lightning God(Jah!), Thunda God and Earthquake God

Jah shall break their band asounder
And cast away all their bad thoughts from us

Help Cocoa and Garnett sing dis ya one! Jah Man,
Knee Shall bow and every tongue shall tell, Jah heis the
Highest
Father thank for all that you have done, and for what you

Every morning, I wake up feeling close to God. I pray for the capsizing of ships carrying wickedness. I want them to realize that I only recognize God. I remember the ten virgins that were chastised, with five being foolish and five being wise. Someone has peed in the water about baptism, but Cocoa Tea and I won't compromise. We give thanks and praise to Selassie-I, the King.


For all the loving and the joy he brings (mmm mm) He guide and protect us along the way Making provision for us everyday So on your knees, every ____ life must pray You hear what I say I can't thank you enough mighty shepherd Your love can't be measured There are no words to describe you But we bless thee for your everlasting shield
We thank God for all the love and joy he brings us. He guides and protects us, making provisions for us every day. Therefore, every life must pray on their knees, as I have said. Mighty shepherd, we can't thank you enough, and your immeasurable love can't be described. We bless you for your everlasting shield.
