It's my friends I want to meet
I have had my share of ups and downs
Took the bitter with the sweet
Trying to knock me off my feet
No matter how hard the battle be
Jah will give me the victory
His blessings are sure and sweet
His blessings are sure and sweet
There is a land so far away
Where night turns into day
And everywhere that you could go
You would see little children play
But somewhere people dying for hunger
Rent and tax man waiting like vultures
Poor people can't take it no longer
Oh, what can you do, legis lator?
that's what the people need
Sweet vic tory, now now now
Many hungry mouths to feed
for the homeless out on the street
for the child with nothing to eat
I lift my hands and heart to Jah
But the flesh is feeling weak
Jah can take away your burden
Help you stand up on your feet
From your trespass, give you pardon
Soon you'll be singing sweet,
Lots of hungry mouths to feed
summer sleep on cold concrete,
for the child with nothing to eat,
the rich, rich is getting richer,
while the poor man is dying for hunger,
food and shelter is all that he ask for,
and we know just what is required,
Sweet vic tory, now, now, now,
many hungry mouths to feed
help a brother plant a seed
Oh Lord, I know my enemies,
it's my friends I want to meet
I have had my share of ups and downs,
took the bitter with the sweet
But there are few bad -minded people,
trying to knock me off my feet
No matter how hard the battle be,
Jah will give me the victory
Ja ja give me victory, now now
Sweet vic tory, now now now
