DELIVER US lyrics by Queen Makedah
By Queen Makedah & Tuviel Levi (produced by Ras Michael/Sons of Negus) copyright 2000

Intro: Vocals with Guitar (Deliver us, Deliver us, Deliver us , Deliver us…)

Verse 1:
Deliver us from the hands evil
Forgive us of our crimes
Forsake us not as we make this journey
to the other side

Verse 2:
Have no fear
We will hear you this time
Have no fear
We’ve been burned in the fire

CHORUS:
We’ll be forever on your side
We’ll be forever on your side
We’ll be forever on your side
We’ll be forever on your side

VERSE 3:
Deliver us from the lands of Egypt
Remember us we are your own
We’ve been dead too long
Lying in the grave too long

VERSE 2:
How can we sing the songs of zion
In this wicked land
How can we sing until we’re free

CHORUS

Bridge:
Hear us, Father hear us, and save us from oppression
See us, Father see us, cause without you we’re lost
How long, how long will you hide your face?
How long, Father, how long, before you deliver us?

Chant:
Deliver Us, Deliver us, Oh Yah
Deliver Us, Deliver us, Oh Yah
Deliver Us, Deliver us, Oh Yah
Deliver Us, Deliver us, Oh Yah
