Lyrics Prayer For Africa - Ardis

Prayer For Africa

There’s never been no greater crime
So say a prayer for Africa
She’s opened up her heart to all who cares
She don’t care if you’re black or white, red or yellow baby
Africa a great nation among nations
A prince among the province
Innocently Africa trusted the adversaries
While they spied on her nakedness
Africa a nation taken into slavery
Dealt with treacherously
Yes, they plundered her cities
They took the best and fled
Leaving behind the seed of deception
A snare to Africa
There’s never been…
They planted on the minds of the children
Africa a home born slave
Through oppression and affliction
Africa doomed to destruction
Let me tears run down like water for Africa
For the ruins of Africa is spread wide as the sea
And her people have become prey
So There’s never been…
We are hard pressed on every side
Perplexed and despaired
Yet that’s the price we have to pay
For our innocence
But we shall wipe away the shame
And stand in dignity amongst men
Bearing the scars of deception
A symbol of survival
That we suffered and survived
There’s never been…
