Open Up The Gate Lyrics - Heart Of The Congos - Congos

Open up the gates of Zion 

Africa we want to go 

Africa we want to go 

Repatriation is at hand 

I and I know where the Black man stands 

To the west coast of Africa 

East, north and south 

Repatriation is a must 

Jah said unto the south 'give up!' 

To the west 'keep not back!' 

Send my sons from afar 

And my daughters from the end of the world 

Hallelujah 

Please send the Father 

The Almighty One of Creation 

Living inna man 

The Almighty Redeemer 

The Word, Sound and Iwa 

Living inna man yeah 

Ooh allelujah! 

Listen to Father 

Almighty Bongo Ashanti I and I 

Living inna I and I 

Mighty, mighty Redeemer of Creation
