The Lion Of Judah Hath Prevailed
By Ras T
Worship idols, worship Buddah
Worship Romans fail
But we claim the Lion of Judah
Because he hath prevailed
You read not of his speeches
You hear not of his tales
But true inspiration teaches
Judah’s Lion hath prevailed
A smoking flax shall he not quench
But bring forth judgment unto truth
He lay himself on David’s bench
And call upon the youth
Through the schemes of evil nations
His words we seldom hail
But who can conquer revelation
When the Lion hath prevailed?
His love for man is widely spread
Can we forever fail?
To know for us his blood was shed
But now he has prevailed
But lack we may of more to know
Still we are satisfied
Because we now have seen the glow
Of Haile Selassie I
We care not who denounce HIM
We care not who agree
But now we have accepted HIM
The vine of David’s tree
How could the seven seals be broken
To depart us from travails
Now that Zion’s King has spoken
We know he has prevailed
