Artist/Band: Lucky Dube
Lyrics for Song: Take It To Jah
Lyrics for Album: Taxman [1997]



TAKE IT TO JAH

Lucky Dube



All this pain in this world

All the crying in this world

I' ll take it to Jah

All the worries in this world

And all the troubles in this world

I will take to Jah



All the suffering

Right where we are

I' ll take to my father



'Cause he said

Come to I with all thine sins

And I will wash away

All the impurities

He said I' m your father

The creater of everything

That' s what I say



Chorus:

All this pain I' ll take to Jah (x2)

All these worries I' ll take to Jah (x2)



Come to I with your problems

No problem too big or small

No one no one will be rejected

I' m your father the creater



OH-HO-HO-HO Lord I cry x2



Even when Satan comes

With him demons

Turn everything I believed in

Upside down

I will never forget mmm

With Jah on our side

Who can be against us

Oh no

Most high-omnipotent one

Praise him most high



Chorus:

All this pain I' ll take to Jah

All this crying I' ll take to Jah

Till fade
