Emancipation they say will never come, oh, will never come..
Man, I say, man is doomed to die,
Down inna Babylon with war and strife,
Grief and terror and the tongues of hate,
This I know, will soon abate,
For I have seen the land of my Father in my visions.
From the hills, of captivity's plains,
Yes I, the scene, of the Righteous One,
Will someday clear, for I this land,
For my brothers and my sisters,
And my brethren in the yoke of oppression,
For the child who only knows of death and destruction.
Deliverance will come, come, come,
Deliverance will come,
Inna dis ya time it will come, come, come,
Deliverance will come, yeah, yeah.
No more visitation..
Now I know where I man stand, yeah..
Woah, yeah.
For I have seen the land of my Father in my visions, yeah,
From the hills, of captivity's plains,
Yes I, the scene, of the Righteous One,
Will someday clear, for I this land.
The man called wisely, or laughed at me,
My captivity and bondage all they can see,
Emancipation they say, will never come, whoah,
Your destiny is in Babylon,
And not in Beulah Land, Beulah Land,
But I know the weary, destitute and scorned, yeah, yeah,
Weakened strength by oppression and dread reforms, yeah.
My deliverance will come, come, come,
Deliverance will come inna dis ya time,
It will come, come, come,
Deliverance will come, yeah.

Jubilation, yeah, inna Beulah Land.
