How long, how long, how long, how long, how long,
How long, how long, how long, how long, how long, O Jah, how long?

Give ear unto I word, O Lord
Consider I meditation
Hearken unto the voice of I cry
My King, my God
For unto thee will I pray
My voice shalt thou hear in the morning
O LORD, in the morning
Will I pray unto thee and will I look up
For thou art not a God that dwell in wickedness
Nor evil dwell in thee
The foolish shall not stand in thy sight
Thou hatest all workers of iniquity
Thou shall destroy them

How long, how long, how long, how long, how long, how long, O Jah?

Hear me when I call
O God of my righteousness thou art
Give ear to I words, O LORD
Consider I meditation
Hearken unto thee I voice, my cry, my King, my God
For unto thee will I pray
For unto thee will I pray
For unto thee will I pray

So long, so long, so long, so long
We are waiting on the Black Star Liner
The Black Star Liner shall come, shall come, shall come, shall come, shall
come

Why do the heathen rage and the people imagine?
Hear I when I call, O God of my righteousness Thou art
I shield, I strength are in thee.
Give ear to I words, O LORD
Consider I meditation

Hearken unto thee, the voice of I cry, my King, my God
For unto thee will I pray
My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD
In the morning, in the morning, in the morning
Will I pray unto thee
And I will look up
For thou art not a God that dwell in wickedness
Nor evil dwell with thee
Foolish shall not stand in the sight of the righteousness
Nor the wickedness of the iniquity
Thou shall destroy them
Speak against them, speak against them, this time.
