If Jesus was black
If Jesus was black
Let me die black
In what I believe in
Not what they want me to believe in
If Jesus was black
Let me die black
On the street to Golgotha
Where I shall find peace on His alter

WHAT COMES NEXT??
When all is said and done

What lifts us next?
After our hope is realised
What teaches us next?

When our zealousness is tested
What follows us next?
When evil rampages the community
What good comes next?
When a world lost is forever forgotten
What minds us next?
When life is disrupted amongst ourselves
What comes next...
