Poems for Africa

AFRICA DON'T CRY

Composed and Written by Dr. Joseph Israel James

Oh! Africa! still in darkness
Africa the great continent
Oh! Africa the people in suffering
Remember Africa you've not forgotten
Africa Don't Cry - God cares

Oh! Africa the son of God
You are born with great treasure
Africa, Arise, strengthen up
Remember Africa you're not forgotten
Africa Don't Cry - God cares

Oh! Africa, be bold, be courageous
Stand! Fight for your destiny
You'll be crowned the praise of the earth
Remember Africa you're not forgotten
Africa Don't Cry - God cares

Africa! Now or Never
Africa wake up, possess your possession
The devil lost the battle, Africa you know it
Remember Africa you're not forgotten
Africa Don't Cry - God cares

Africa, I see you on the mountain of God
The power of the oppressor is broken
Africa arise, shine and shout out for joy
Remember Africa you're not forgotten
Africa Don't Cry - God cares
