(intro)
Listen to the words of the preacher, it is written in the scripture, shade upon thy right hand Jah is your keeper
(verse)
Yea though I walk through the dark, mi no faint inna heart when mi hear chickenhawk
Don't fear no guy with no fork, cause Jah rod and him staff comforts on the path
Heathen will blow like the chaff, they shall soon be cut off when the Gideon start
Fret not thyself, Jah will be your help, and the shelter from pestilence
Iyah mi say
(chorus)
Go with Jah, roll With Jah Jah, go with Jah, binghi nyah
Go with Jah, roll with Jah, restore my soul in Jah, binghi nyah
(verse)
When you're not sure anymore, who is knocking the door, and you feel insecure
You woke up screaming from dreaming, the pagans were scheming, and terrorism
Deep waters rise, and the tide jeopardize, but with pride I will lift up mine eyes
Rasta be still, do Jah will, and your cup ago fill overflowing
Sistren mi say
(chorus)
Go with Jah, roll with Jah Jah, go with Jah, binghi nyah
Roll with Jah, roll with Jah, restore my soul in Jah, chant a prayer
(verse)
Emperor Haile Selassie the First, righteous works are in heaven on earth
Inside the orthodox church, mi say soul haffi search, send a rice from the dirt
Lead us not into temptation, nor the bowels of satan, oh King of Zion
Thou art the Conquering Lion, I-man need directions to the Fountain of Gihon
mi say
(chorus)
Go with Jah, roll with Jah Jah, go with Jah, binghi nyah
Roll with Jah, flow with Jah, restore my soul in Jah, binghi nyah
Go with Jah, roll with Jah Jah, go with Jah, binghi nyah
Roll with Jah, go with Jah, restore my soul in Jah, chant a prayer
(verse)
So listen to the word of the preacher, it is written in the scripture, shade upon thy right hand Jah is your keeper
Yea though I walk through the dark, I no faint inna heart when mi hear chickenhawk,
No fear no guy with no fork cause Jah rod and him staff comforts on the path,
Heathen will blow like the chaff, they shall soon be cut off, when the Gideon start,
Fret not thyself, Jah will be your help and the shelter from pestilence
Nyah mi say,
(chorus)
Roll with Jah, go with Jah Jah, roll with Jah, binghi nyah
Go with Jah, roll with Jah, build up your soul in Jah, binghi nyah
Go with Jah, roll with Jah Jah
