THE CALLING
Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly,
nor walketh in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful
But his delight shall be in Jah
It's a natural mystic blowing thru the air
And if you listen carefully now you will hear
The first will be the last and the last will be the first
We have to give thanks if we’ re not the worse
You've got to be aware when the almighty he call
And never find your back against the wall
It is the calling
Say me a sit down and a reasoning in jah garden, oh lord It is the calling
Me say you never wah hear when it is the warning
(marcus)
To act justly, to love mercy, to walk humbly on a path that is holy
For it a duty, fill it wholly, follow the call in a manner that a worthy
Same thing again no di rule neva change
Learn to do right, the oppressed fi defend
Say fi care for di land oh Jah garden fi tend
Fight for the cause a no time fi pretend
Say if answer Jah calling
For soon the house a cards a falling
Answer the calling
It is the calling
Say me a sit down and a reasoning in jah garden, oh lord It is the calling
Me say you never wah hear when it is the warning
Say some a teacher and some a reaper
You have fe know you a you own brother keeper
Say some a crier nuff a dem a lier
Nuff a dem a claim dem come fi kill vampire
Be carefull of the wolf dem weh under cover
Be carefull of the one dem wah come steal you power Say nuff no know the minute or the hour
When them think say it sweet we know say it sour
But from you see them face you know them nuh care
And thats why dem nah reach no where
It is the calling
Say me a sit down and a reasoning in jah garden, oh lord It is the calling
Me say you never wah hear when it is the warning
It's a natural mystic
(Marcus)
And it a blowing thru the air
