Song Lyrics

Biblical Reference

Na na na na na na  
His mercies endureth for me 1 Chronicles 16:34 - O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.
Wooy  
Let's rise and shine and give Jah the glory Revelation 14:7 - Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
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
Psalm 9:11 - Sing praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings.
Psalm 18:49 - Therefore will I give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the heathen, and sing praises unto thy name.
Give thanks and praise to his majesty 2 Samuel 22:50 - Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the heathen, and I will sing praises unto thy name.
1 Chronicles 16:8 -Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people.
1 Chronicles 16:34 - O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.
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 Matthew 5:5 - Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
And the wicked shall get his reward  
Promise to give you the world
But don't listen dem boys they a fraud
Matthew 4:8-10 - Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
They'll never get away no no no, no no no  
And if you're weary, tired and heavy laden
Your burden you know he will bear
Matthew 11:28 - Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Jah will protect you so have no fear Deuteronomy 31:8 - And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.
You shall be like trees planted by the river Psalm 1:3 - And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
Living with humbleness there
No more in bondage real(?) niceness must we share

The meek shall inherit the earth
And the wicked shall get his reward
Promise to give you the world
But don't listen, dem boys they a fraud
They'll never get away no no no
Never get away

Ooh-eeh
Let us stand and give Jah Jah all the glory
 
Come let us worship His name Psalm 86:9 - All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name.
He's yesterday and forever the same Hebrews 13:8 - Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
He can never fail
He won't put us to shame
 
When we call on his name Psalm 105:1 - O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people.
Remember livity is not a game

The ship of the slaver won't sail
And my people are not for sale
Trying to put us in jail
But they come to no avail
They bound to fail
You know they're bound to fail

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

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 yeah ...
For all the world to see
Ooh-eeh
They know his mercy endureth for me......
