Story Behind the Song
Inspired by a chant from our dear departed friend and mentor, Rastafarian Elder Ras Pidow, who's work on this eathly plane was cut short by vicious thugs earlier this year. However; his influence continues to be felt, and the seeds that were his mission to sow are bearing fruit even now, as evidenced by this tribute to Rasta culture and theocracy.
Lyrics
I give thanks and praise in the morning
while the bright sunshine is dawning
I pray for guidance and protection
as I go through Babylon
give thanks, give thanks
give thanks oh yes give thanks
give thanks, give thanks
give thanks hail H.I.M. give thanks
The herb is the healing of the nations
it was bred from JAH creation
helps I in Iya meditation
it keeps me clean and strong
give thanks, give thanks
give thanks oh yes give thanks
give thanks, give thanks
give thanks I-Man give thanks
JAH is the One Foundation
He leads us from temptation
He is I Light and Salvation
I know He'll lead me on
give thanks, give thanks
give thanks oh yes give thanks
give thanks, give thanks
give thanks hail H.I.M. give thanks
Oh in the summertime
in the winter
and in the autumn
in the springtime
oh what a springtime
we'll give thanks
give thanks, give thanks
give thanks oh yes give thanks

Oh what a glory
when the whole world did give thanks
give thanks, give thanks
give thanks oh yes give thanks
give thanks, give thanks
give thanks hail H.I.M. give thanks

Lion Of Judah!
Twelve Trbes Of Israel
