These Are My People

Pharaoh was the man thought he had the master plan
Reigned down hard on his slaves, with more grief everyday

Steal their will, hurt their hearts stop rebellion before it starts
Pharaoh was a mighty man but he forgot about God's plan

Moses - was his name, helping the oppressed was his game
Went way down to Egypt land, told old Pharoah Gods demands

But Pharoah had a hard heart, didn't listen to Moses from the start
Moses didn't back away, told Pharoah the Lord says

These Are My People you will loose your hand
Release my people and let them leave this land, cause
These Are My People, don't you understand
I will rock your world

Now Pharaoh said "no, no" I won't let your people go
Said "Who is this God to-tell King Pharaoh what to do?

I'll rain down more sorrow, Kill you’re first born so they won't grow"
Now Pharaoh was a mighty man, but he forgot about God's plan

Moses - was his name, boldly Gods words proclaimed with
Wonders and miracles from his staff and by his name

Pharoah tried all he could to turn Gods words into falsehood Still Moses didn't back away

Told King Pharoah the Lord says

These Are My People you will lose your hand
Release my people and let them leave this land, cause
These Are My People, don't you understand
I will rock your world

Na segue na segue so
Kwala e

Ka na wa nde we sangwa miano,
O ma boloné nguiya ngo
Senga mbemba loba,
Mona pharao we tumba la o la lé
Ba buse o mboa ngo,

Onguela na e nde nguiya mianoéé
A bati na e ndé nguiya mianoéé

Eseleéé eseleéé ésélé tumba lam
Ah pharaoooohhhh
Esele mo

These Are My People you will lose your hand
Release my people and let them leave this land, cause
These Are My People, don't you understand
I will rock your world

Kana wa ndé we sangwa miano senga mbenda loba
