Poems for Africa

AFRICA! I HEAR A SOUND

Composed and Written by Dr. Joseph Israel James

Africa I see heaven open for you
Yes a decision is made in heaven
Africa the sweet son of God
Africa is springing up, after many year of silence
Africa! I hear a sound
Yes! It is a sound of abundance

Africa! Shout and sing out for joy
Yes, someone says Africa shall be saved
Africa! Your emancipation hour is come
Oh! I can see a table prepared for Africa
Africa! I hear a sound
Yes! It is a sound of abundance

Africa! The mission center for the world now
Tomorrow you might go and help somewhere
Africa you're in the prophetic calendar of God
Oh! I can see a great change coming to Africa
Africa! I hear a sound
Yes! It is a sound of abundance

Africa! Your sin is washed, oh! the precious blood
No weapon! Africa no weapon against you shall prosper
Africa kings and queens shall rise from you
Yes! I can see you jump like a warrior
Africa! I hear a sound
Yes! It is a sound of abundance
