NEVER FAIL (N. Joseph / A. Phillips / P. Yebuah / K. Edgehill)
I cant believe what i`m seeing in front of me
mankind trying to diss Humanity
trying to find the strength to let ourselves be free, oh yeah yeah
we need to look back into our history
and remember the fight from captivity
they just cant make ammends with no recompense oh no no no
oh i know the day will come when under the moon and sun
will open up their hearts and minds and see jah`s work has just begun
jah jah no he never fail i yet no i never have to fret jah jah never fail i yet
father no he never fail i yet no i never have to fret jah jah never fail iyet
Battle getting hotter and we nah give up the fight
Jah rastafari cause we know and see the ight
Tell all the nation that seeketh truths and rights
before the fights begun we know its truly won
time will come when jah will make the tables turn
story you all will learn fire is going to burn oh yes
i know i know the day will come when everyone under the sun will
open their hearts and mind and see that jah work has just begun
jah jah no he never fail i yet no i never have to fret jah jah never fail i yet
father no he never fail i yet no i never have to fret jah jah never fail i ye
no he never fail i yet
what is this that i am seeing in front of me
some aware but some blind and can not see
we need to look back into our history and remember the fight in captivity
just cant make amends with no recompense
lord i know i know the day will come when under the moon and sun
jah jah no he never fail i yet no i never have to fret jah jah never fail i yet
father no he never fail i yet no i never have to fret jah jah never fail i ye

Keep up the vibes words by Antonio Phillips
we are sending out the vibes to the masses on the waves

Give them the vibe i say

Keep up the vibes sister keep up the vibes
and i and i will survive
if your living in the country or your living in a town
anything you do bad mind a keep you down
want to make a move but youve got to stick around

we are gonna push a little bit day by day
Gonna push the vibe gonna raise the stakes
Gonna try create let us all originate
Give me the vibes i say
Give me the vibes brother Give me the vibes
thats how we stay alive
Give me the vibes sister Give me the vibes
and i and i will survive
your working for a dollar and your working for a raise elevate yourself man got to innovate

whoah yes
Didn't know what I was thinking when I said goodbye
Didn't know what I was thinking when I said goodbye
i didn't know what I`d be missing now only tears I cry
I fought with such resistance just to lose all self-control
i` am sure you`ll find this love of mine is yours to have and to hold
I want to hear you say right now
Just say you`ll love me a little bit longer
Just a little bit longer now
Just say you`ll hold me a little bit tighter
just a little bit tighter now
Just say you`ll love me a little bit longer
Just say you`ll hold me a little bit tighter
If you`ve ever been so lonely so lonely you could die
Then you`d know just what I`m saying and all the reasons why
It would never need explaining because the feelings tell us why
and I`m sure you`ll find this love of mine is made for you and I
I want to hear you say right now
Just say you`ll love me a little bit longer
Just a little bit longer now

Lyrics by Nereus Joseph Comp/arr by Carlton `bubbler` Ogilvie.
Try a little love yes Have a little faith
I got a message from Hope saying keep it up keep up the work
another message from faith saying it wont be too late
The love she came and told me that she is the only remedy
and why when man was born to be free choose to hate and not to seek
and every day is sadness trying to turn it to gladness
every day is sadness trying to turn it to gladness
Hope Faith and Love a blessing from above
as far as I can see we can rule our destiny
Hope Faith and Love a blessing from above
as far as I can see only we can let it be
Let your soul live on yes just by knowing
Knowing right from wrong together we are strong
The day has just began
so who are they to judge you and for your faith they scorn you
why when man was born to be free choose to hate and not to seek
and every day is sadness trying to turn it to gladness
and every day is sadness trying to turn it to gladness
and we could strive and never know the reasons why
all the Blessings pass us by
cant blame it on the world but on and on I say
Hope Faith and Love is a n abundance of wealth
Hope Faith and Love a blessing from above
as far as I can see we can rule our destiny
Hope Faith and Love a blessing from above
as far as I can see only we can let it be
