| People, the power
|
| Is in your hands
|
| To chase out corruption
|
| To heal this beautiful land
|
| Jah beautiful land
|
| Oh yeah, yeah
|
| People, the hour
|
| The hour is at hand
|
| We can come together now
|
| Rise up and take a stand
|
| 'cause we’ve got the powers, yes
|
| To stop those war mongers
|
| Oh, they try to divide us all
|
| Jah love has to conquer
|
| We’ve got the powers, yes
|
| Together we’ll be so much stronger
|
| And the Babylon system
|
| Won’t be able to stand any longer
|
| Oh, higher, higher heights
|
| Higher, higher, yo
|
| Higher, higher, ye-ah, woy-yo-yagga-yo
|
| Higher, higher heights
|
| Higher, higher, yo
|
| Higher, higher, ye-ah, woy-yo-yagga-yo
|
| Acquisitions of material things
|
| Won’t satisfy your soul
|
| Only Jah love is everlasting
|
| It never leaves us in the cold
|
| But it’s a shame to see mother earth and her children
|
| Being bought and sold
|
| Some of them say things have changed
|
| They still remain the same
|
| As in the days of those pirates of old
|
| Higher, higher heights
|
| Higher, higher, yo
|
| Higher, higher, ye-ah, woy-yo-yagga-yo
|
| Higher, higher heights
|
| Higher, higher, yo
|
| Higher, higher, ye-ah, woy-yo-yagga-yo
|
| How good and how pleasant it is
|
| When we dwell in unity and love
|
| It’s as precious as the rains
|
| Is as the dew from the mountains above
|
| I would fly to the hills and be at rest
|
| If I had the wings of a dove
|
| But since I have no wings, iya
|
| Hear the voice of our supplications
|
| Higher, higher heights
|
| Higher, higher, yo
|
| Higher, higher, ye-ah, woy-yo-yagga-yo
|
| Higher, higher heights
|
| Higher, higher, yo
|
| Higher, higher, ye-ah, woy-yo-woy-yo
|
| For truth and for rights
|
| For peace and for love
|
| Good God, we need justice, justice, justice
|
| But I know some won’t want to discuss this
|
| What’s this, what’s this, what’s this?
|
| Oh, people the power
|
| Is in your hands
|
| To chase out corruption
|
| To heal this beautiful land
|
| Jah beautiful land |
