[male
vocals] (
Woi!)
Lord,
mi
soul
heavy,
mi
cry
out
to
yuh
tonight. (
Listen,
mi
seh)
How
long,
O
Lord,
will
yuh
forget
me
now?
How
long
will
yuh
hide
yuh
face
and
look
away?
Every
single
day,
sorrow
anchor
deep
inside
mi
heart
Mi
mind
full
a
counsel,
mi
spirit
falling
apart
How
long
must
mi
suffer
while
the
enemy
rise?
Watching
dem
stand
tall
right
before
mi
tired
eyes?
How
long,
Lord?
How
long,
Lord?
Why
yuh
leave
mi
here
to
battle
on
my
own?
How
long,
Lord?
How
long,
Lord?
Mi
hope
a
fade,
mi
feeling
so
alone (
Brrr!)
Consider
me,
Lord,
hear
the
cry
of
your
child
Light
up
mi
eyes,
Lord,
mi
spirit
feel
defiled
Before
I
sleep
the
sleep
of
death
and
lose
my
way
Before
the
darkness
claim
the
words
I
try
to
pray
Don't
let
the
enemy
say
they
finally
won
Don't
let
them
rejoice
that
the
damage
is
done
How
long,
Lord?
How
long,
Lord?
Why
yuh
leave
mi
here
to
battle
on
my
own?
How
long,
Lord?
How
long,
Lord?
Mi
hope
a
fade,
mi
feeling
so
alone
But
despite
the
pain,
I
still
put
my
trust
in
yuh
Your
mercy
is
the
only
thing
that's
truly
true
My
heart
will
rejoice
in
the
salvation
yuh
bring
In
the
middle
of
the
sorrow,
I
still
choose
to
sing (
Mi
seh!)
For
yuh
have
dealt
bountifully
with
me
in
the
past
This
heavy
season,
Lord,
I
know
it
cannot
last
I
fix
mi
gaze
on
yuh,
the
light
inside
the
dark
Reignite
the
fire,
Lord,
and
kindle
every
spark (
Aye!)
How
long,
Lord?
How
long,
Lord?
Why
yuh
leave
mi
here
to
battle
on
my
own?
How
long,
Lord?
How
long,
Lord?
Mi
hope
a
fade,
mi
feeling
so
alone
I
will
sing
unto
the
Lord,
yeah
Because
yuh
favor
remain
on
me
Amen,
Lord.
Amen. (
Dutty!)
Kingston,
hear
mi
prayer.
