Sun shines on my face
It's the start of a brand new day
The birds sing loud outside
They're singing the songs of life
I'm about to go out with my friends
A new journey begins
On a road that's filled with love
When you walk in Africa
Walk in Africa
There's fresh fruit in the trees
And the wind blows thru the leaves
The sun starts rising high
And the time just passes by
We're still on the road
And we have a ways to go
But the journey's never far
When you walk in Africa
Walk in Africa
Walk in Africa
When you walk in Africa
Now on the road there are children too
Boys and girls that should be in school
There's a woman there that walks alone
She's a widow 3 kids no home
I see men making bricks in the heat
And they working hard just for a little food to eat
These are the things that I saw
When I walked in Africa
So tell me what do I do
When I see a little girl with no shoes
A whole family in a hospital bed
And a boy who just lost his dad
Tell me what can I say
Does the Lord hear me when I pray
I just want this pain to stop
So I walk for Africa
Walk for Africa
Walk for Africa
Walk for Africa
So I walk for Africa
