Peter Tosh - Rumors Of War


Song Lyrics

Biblical Reference

Talkin' 'bout war
And rumors of war
Matthew 24:6 - And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
Mark 13:7 - And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet.
Talkin' 'bout the coming of Jah
The time is not far

Oh my majesty
Please rescue me-e-e
Oh my majesty
Can't you rescue me-e-e

Wars
Rumors of war
Talkin' 'bout the coming of my father
The time is not far

God when I reach home
How happy I'll be
Knowing I am home
Where I am free

Talkin' 'bout war
And rumors of war
Talkin' bout the coming of the Negus
The time is not far

Oh my(3x) majesty
Can't you rescue me

When I look upon creation
 
All I see is man's abomination Matthew 24:15-16 - When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
Causing combination
Amongst the younger generation

War
Rumors of war
Talkin' 'bout the coming of Jah Jah
The time is not far

When I reach that place
Gonna be happy and free
Knowing I'm in that land
And I've got my liberty

And I see war in a Beirut
War in a...
Lebanon
Syria, yeah
Pakistan
Namibia
Soweto
Johannesburg
South Africa
 
Make sure your hands and heart are clean Psalm 24:4 - He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
So you can rally around the red, gold and green
