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
