Jesus in Africa
Running from Herod and his rage
Fulfilling the prophet's word
And all the things the Angel spake
Jesus in Africa
Came in the hands of old white men
With a mission to massacre
And free us from satan's toxic fangs
Jesus in Africa
Judging the nations for their sins
Magical Janitor
Opening doors and serving men
Jesus in Africa
Painted by Warner E Sallman
Now the image of saviour
Is a light skin, blonde hair, blue eyed man
We don't know what we did to deserve your grace
Is this what it looks like when you have your way
I really want to believe Lord help my faith
The devil came to deceive Lord save my race
Jesus in Africa
Needs your help to pay his rent
So give with a cheerful heart
And he'll multiple your days
Jesus in Africa
Still on the cross of Calvary
Yelling anathema
Always cross and mad at me
Jesus in Africa
Took our soul, our gold and land
Made us ambassadors
Of a city made with gems
We don't know what we did to deserve your grace
Is this what it looks like when you have your way
I really want to believe Lord help my faith
The devil came to deceive Lord save my race
We don't know what we did to deserve your grace
Is this what it looks like when you have your way
I really want to believe Lord help my faith
The devil came to deceive Lord save my race
I was all empty inside
Jesus you, swooped down and made me alive
(Aye)
Your love runs deep and it won't stop
Purify me Hyssop
Many are they that distort
Using your name for the perks
