Emmanuel by Dennis Brown Lyrics

[Intro]
[Scatting]

[Verse 1]
The Lord-God is with us (Yeah)
He gave us the moon, and the stars. and this blessed day
No regrets, no sorrow nor pain (No-no)
Woah, Jacob, he recalls the name (Ye-yeah)

[Chorus]
My people, don't be misled
My people, think wise instead (Come along!)
My people, don't be misled (Children)
My people, think wise instead

[Verse 2]
Here we are singing and dancing
Together like one family
We all know, we all know
We all know what it is to be free
Let's all sing and pray; enmity (No-no)
[Chorus]
My people, don't be misled (Come along!)
My people, think wise instead (Children)
My people, don't be misled (Don't be misled, no-no)
My people, think wise instead

[Bridge]
[Scatting]
Children-children-children (Yeah!)

[Verse 3]
Love and hate can never be friends
Not until, not until
Not until the world comes to an end (Ye-yeah)

[Outro]
Uh, children, don't be misled
Children, think wisely instead
Children, don't be misled by dem rituals (Woah, yeah)
