[Chorus:]
Jah he will provide
He will give you strenght
So you can earn your bread
And somewhere to lay your head (I tell you)
I will survive
Through these rocky days
To him I will give my praise
Give thanks and go my ways
[Verse 1:]
So mi a go trod with my heavy load
Pon this long narrow old rocky road
Yuh nuh see seh everything gone overboard
You barely hang on cah yuh just cyan afford
But yuh haffi travel pon yuh journey set speed
Nuh mek di devil run or yuh waan tek di lead
You seh yuh haffi hustle cah nuff mouth fi feed
But don't hurt yuh sister and bredda too breed
Wah mek
[Chorus:]
Jah he will provide
He will give you strenght
So you can earn your bread
And somewhere to lay your head
I will survive
Through these rocky days
To him I will give my praise
Give thanks and go my ways
[Verse 2:]

Everybody done with di killing
Do nuh badda wid nuh more war, no more blood spilling
Just through you waan two schillin
Dat nuh mean seh yuh haffi kill har, yuh nuh haffi kill him
You can earn honest livin
But you haffi have a clean heart, deep down within
You see as long as you willin
Fi work he will answer your prayer cah he is forgivin

Through these rocky days (rocky days)
To him I will give my praise
Give thanks and go my ways
[Verse 1]
[Chorus: till end]
