God Bless Africa

God bless Africa
And all of her children. 

Your eyes see its potential 
Your hand will save, the land most forgotten
Our hope wide as the Lake Victoria
Dream outstretched like the peak of Kilimanjaro
She is your bride
Take her gently 
Love her purely. 

God bless my Africa
And all of her children.
