[INTRO — SPOKEN] Oh
Jah...
Hear
our
prayer.
We
come
before
You
for
the
NDC...
For
the
Eastern
Region.
Not
to
pretend
that
everything
is
well. 2028
is
coming...
And
Eastern
Region
must
be
ready.
Jah
guide!
Eastern
Region...
RISE
UP! [
CHORUS —
LEAD +
CHOIR] 🎵
Oh
God,
save
the
NDC!
Crowd:
HEAR
OUR
CRY!
Save
the
NDC
in
Eastern
Region!
Crowd:
JAH,
SHOW
THE
WAY!
Give
us
wisdom!
Give
us
unity!
Let
the
grassroots
rise
again!
Oh
God,
save
the
NDC!
EASTERN
REGION,
RISE
AGAIN! 🎵
[VERSE 1 — THE WARNING] For
too
long
we
have
hidden
the
pain.
Our
votes
have
been
declining.
Our
strength
must
grow
again.
In
twenty
twenty-four...
Three
seats
gained.
Crowd:
THREE!
Three
seats
lost.
Crowd:
THREE!
Three
came
in...
Three
went
out.
Where
is
the
progress?
We
cannot
remain
standing
while
others
move
forward.
And
remember...
Our
opponents
will
not
sleep
forever.
They
will
reorganize.
They
will
return.
So
before 2028...
PUT
THE
HOUSE
IN
ORDER!
Crowd:
PUT
THE
HOUSE
IN
ORDER!
Unite
the
family!
Crowd:
UNITE
THE
FAMILY!
Prepare
for
victory!
Crowd:
FORWARD
EVER!
[VERSE 2 — BRING THE FAMILY HOME] Oh
Jah...
Many
are
wounded.
Some
feel
forgotten.
Some
feel
abandoned.
Some
still
love
the
party...
But
they
sit
quietly.
Bring
back
the
former
executives.
Bring
back
the
former
appointees.
Bring
back
the
former
MPs.
Bring
back
those
who
left
in
pain.
Let
the
branches
speak!
Let
the
grassroots
be
heard!
The
NDC
belongs
to
all
of
us.
Not
a
few.
Not
a
clique.
Not
a
closed
circle.
One
family!
Crowd:
ONE
FAMILY!
One
struggle!
Crowd:
ONE
STRUGGLE!
One
NDC!
Crowd:
VICTORY! [
CHORUS] 🎵
Oh
God,
save
the
NDC!
Hear
the
grassroots
cry!
Remember
the
faithful!
Remember
their
sacrifice!
Let
reconciliation
come!
Let
unity
stand
tall!
Oh
God,
save
the
NDC!
LET
THE
PARTY
BELONG
TO
ALL! 🎵
[VERSE 3 — THE ROOTS] Oh
Jah...
Save
us
from
greed.
Save
us
from
cabals.
Save
us
from
selfish
ambition.
Save
us
from
money
politics.
Give
us
leaders
who
listen.
Leaders
who
serve.
Leaders
who
remember
the
grassroots.
Because
power
without
service...
Crowd:
IS
EMPTY!
Leadership
without
people...
Crowd:
IS
NOTHING!
The
grassroots
are
the
roots!
And
no
tree
survives...
AFTER
CUTTING
ITS
OWN
ROOTS!
Crowd:
NEVER!
[BRIDGE — DRUMS BUILD] From
Afram
Plains...
Crowd:
RISE
UP!
From
Kwahu
Mountains...
Crowd:
RISE
UP!
From
Akuapem...
Crowd:
RISE
UP!
From
Krobo
lands...
Crowd:
RISE
UP!
From

Every

Every
