Africa Ii
Little girl standing tall
High above
What told of mighty fall
The world is lost
No hope no trust
But in dark country
In to solid stone
Home is cast
Bright fiery sunsets
Vivid starlit nights
Jackal calls
Lion roar
Little girl
At peace with world
Sun dried earth
Mighty beasts
No defeat
Just voiceless rumbles
Mighty and strong
Little girl no longer stumbles
Running wild along with beasts
Feet barely touching worldly deceit
Scorching African sun
Beating down
Freedom finally found
Little girl stares into made flames
Seeing old life old thoughts
Smiling at her untamability
Little girl standing tall
Arms outstretched
Face lifted to heaven
Drenched in new life
Sacredly touched
Finally safe
Thanking The Creator
For His amazing grace
