U JEHOVA WAKHO UZOKUNQOBELA
|
|
They say everything can be replaced
|
Yet every distance is not near
|
So I remember every face
|
Of every man who put me here
|
|
I see the light come shining
|
From the west unto the east
|
Any day now any day now
|
I shall be released
|
|
They say every man needs protection
|
They say every man must fall
|
Yet I swear I see my reflection
|
Some place too high above this wall
|
|
Now yonder standing me in this lonely crowd
|
A man who swears he's not to blame
|
ALl day long I hear his voice shouting so loud
|
Crying out that he was framed
|
|
I see the light come shining
|
From the west unto the east
|
Any day now any day now
|
I shall be released
|
