The African Child

African chant:

Eh eh oh eh
Eh eh oh eh!

Chorus:

I lead and others follow,
I’m the future, I am tomorrow,
Like the sun I always rise, I’m undefeated,
I’m the spark of hope across the darkest night,
I’m the brightest star across the African sky
I am the African child

Verse 1:

I’m a house upon the hill,
I refuse to stay down,
I am blessed abundantly,
I’m a winner no doubt,
I’ll push through the storm,
I’ll never give up,
No matter what comes my way.

Verse 2:

I’m that eagle in the sky
Majestically soaring,
I’m the light I shine so bright,
Evil cannot stop me,
(Refrain)
I’ll push through the storm
I’ll never give up
No matter what comes my way.

Hook:

I’ll climb the mountain,
I’ll cross the river
To bring the glory
Back to my Africa
