Well, Selassie protect his children, keep them from falling.
Mi cry hmmm mi cry
Hmmm mi cry, cry, cry

They're wishing for me to fall but Jah's gonna make me stronger.
They're wishing for me to fall but Jah's gonna make me higher.

You will never see me by the street side begging bread,
Jah bless me with a roof over my head,
Just keep focus cause better is ahead
Jah power stronger
They act as if Jah nuh really know, not even likkle love dem would a show me
But as the days go by, many turn, they turn

They're wishing for me to fall, but Jah's gonna rise me higher
They're wishing for me to fall, but Jah's gonna make me stronger

I always try to do, the best thing I can do
The wicked dem plotting against me
Want me meet mi waterloo
Tell dem say the most high Jah, the most high Jah, he always see me [bad word] 
Tell dem say the most high Jah, the most high Jah, the wicked man must get slue

They're wishing for me to fall, but Jah's gonna rise me higher
They're wishing for me to fall, but Jah's gonna make me stronger

Stronger, stronger, stronger (repeat 7 xs)

They're wishing for me to fall, but Jah's gonna rise me higher
They're wishing for me to fall, but Jah's gonna make me stronger

You will never see me by the street side begging bread,
Jah bless me with a roof over my head,
Just keep focus cause better is ahead
Jah power stronger
They act as if Jah nuh really know, not even likkle love dem would a show me
But as the days go by, many turn, they turn

They're wishing for me to fall, but Jah's gonna rise me higher
They're wishing for me to fall, but Jah's gonna make me stronger
