This lyric contains biblical references. Click here to show the references.

Open up the gates of Zion
Psalm 118:19; Isaiah 26:2


Africa we want to go
Africa we want to go

Repatriation is, at hand
I and I know where the black man stands
I and I know where the black man stands

To the west coast of Africa
East, north and south
Repatriation is, a must of Ion
Repatriation is, a must

Jah said unto the south 'give up!' (give up!)
To the west 'keep not back!' (not back!)
Send my sons from afar
And my daughters from the end of the world
Isaiah 43:6

Send my sons from afar
And my daughters from the end of the world

Hallelujah!
Please, send the Father
The Almighty One of Creation, in man
Living inna man yah
The Mighty Redeemer
The Word, Sound and Iwa
Living inna man yah

Ooh, Hallelujah!
Listen to Father
The Almighty, the Bongo Ashanti, aah I, aah I
Living inna I and I
Mighty, Mighty Redeemer of Creation, ah yeah

To the west coast of Africa
East, north and south
Repatriation is, a must of Ion
Repatriation is, a must of Ion

Jah said unto the south 'give up!' (give up!)
To the west 'keep not back!' (not back!)
Send my sons from afar
And my daughters from the end of the world
Send my sons from afar
And my daughters from the end of the world
