It was a time of fear and hate 

King's power was so cruel 

It was so far, in the land of death 

Only the strong survived 

You've been suffering but you never cried 

See the power of this holy light, ooh 



Child, Child of the nile 

Child, Child of the nile 

This legend will live through the end of time 



Hunting your fate, you've sought the beast 

You've found the only truth 

After the war, slavery was killed 

You were the son of god 

You've been suffering but you never cried 

See the power of unholy lights 



Child, Child of the nile 

Child, Child of the nile 

This legend will live through the end of time 



Break the chains of misery with your hand 

Guide this nation to the promised land, ooh 



Child, Child of the nile 

Child, Child of the nile 

This legend will live through the end of time
