Asking people not to give up on this continent |
| Home-Sweet-Africa No people have claim to this land Nor beast exclusivity to her bounty She is Eve to all mankind Politics violate her virtue Sickness and Hunger soldiers of fortune Race and Religion pawns to expediency Free from Histories Blame and Guilt Never forget your rightful place Nor shy from your Heritage Cower from Nothing Cherish this land that lives within Praise God without Reserve Warm the soul beneath African suns Listen to the inner whisper of Savannha winds As Zambezi waters flow through your veins Lightning dances across darkened skies As thunderstorms beat to your heart Rain soothes baked earth as tears of home fall Guard against Africa's predjudiced Building walls of doubt in your mind Let kith nor kin deter your return Your soul will rejoice as life begins In Gods own Garden Home-Sweet-Africa |
