Africa Outside

HUSH!

Did Rachel weep for her children?

Yes,

Who wept for me?

Hush, the day has dawned

Hush, are these the lost of Africa?

Hush! Lost! Never!

We are easily identifiable

No matter how diluted

So hush,

Let your heart not weep

 

How many prophets have we had

How many slain?

Hush, let your heart not weep

The prophets are always taken down

Why?

Because they speak words of truth to enlighten

Hush, do not weep.

Rejoice because you have heard

 

“I Have A Dream…”

Who has not heard it and made it their own

From North to South

From East to West

Everyone has heard these words

So hush,

Do not weep

A thousand years is like a day.

Hush do not weep,

The dawn has come.
