I see them gathered, see them on the shore
  I turned to look once more
  And he who knows me not
  Takes me to the belly of darkness
  
  The tears run swift and hard
  And when they fall
  Even, even the comfort of a stone
  Would be a gain
  There was a time when I thought
  I would have to give up
  But I'm thankful that I'm
  Strong as I am and I'll
  Try to do the best I can
  
  [1] - Tears will run swift
  And tears will come that fall like rain
  I pray that it's swift though
  Tears will fall as cold as pain
  
  I pray to the almighty
  Let me not to him do
  As he has unto me
  Teach my beloved children
  Who have been enslaved
  To reach for the light continually
  
  So many times I prayed
  So many times I've prayed for you
  Prayed for you
  
  The tears run swift and hard and cold as pain
  Even, even the comfort of a stone would be a gain
  Had I not had the strength and wisdom of a warrior
  I would have to give up
  But I'm thankful that I'm
  Strong as I am and I'll
  Try to do the best I can
  
  [Repeat 1]
  
  I pray to the almighty
  Let us not do as he has unto us
  Teach my beloved children I've been a slave
  But reach for the light continually
  
  Wisdom is the flame
  Wisdom is the brave warrior
  Who will carry us into the sun
  I pray that it's swift though
  Tears will come that fall like rain
  
  So many times, so many times
