(Oh-oh-oh)
Yoh... Nkala nachi kulupililo, mubale wanga
Mulungu awaona zonze zeupita more, ayy
(Hear the chains rattle)
Behind these cold iron bars, you sit in the dark
They tell stories, but God knows your heart
Bakanba kuti ndiwe ochimwa , but yonse ni boza koma
Don't lose your hope now, this pain will be over
Amai ndi abambo, the tears fall, but joy comes at dawn
Keep holding on, the night is almost gone
Chains will fall, oh! (Hallelujah!)
Mulungu azapanga or munga nkhale mundende
, His light will shine through
Trust in the Lord, His promise is true
Free in your spirit, they can't lock your soul
Our God is in control!
Many innocent souls are locked in the cage
But Mulungu is writing a brand-new page
You cry to the heavens, "How long must I wait?"
Just look at the sky, He will open the gate
No lock can hold what the heavens decree
One day very soon, you will walk out free
Chains will fall, oh! (Hallelujah!)
Lesa will make a way for you
Even in prison, His light will shine through
Trust in the Lord, His promise is true
Free in your spirit, they can't lock your soul
Our God is in control!
Natotela, Lord, we believe
The chains are breaking now
Ayy... you are free
Believe in God... yes...
(Fade out on soft organ)
