Oh God, hear my cry when I sing to you
Oh God, hear my plea when I call to you
While you're sitting high up there, don't forget my name
While you're sitting high up there, please remember my name
Lord please, don't forget my name
Chineke, biko — remember mine
Oh God, hear my cry when I sing to you
Oh God, hear my plea when I call to you
While you're sitting high up there, don't forget my name
While you're sitting high up there, remember my name
You deliver Daniel from the lions
Then you deliver David from the wicked one
You deliver Daniel from the lions
Then you deliver David from the wicked one
Lord please, hear my cry
Lord please, hear my call
Lots of people call You in the morning, Lord
Lots of people call You in the evening, Lord
Lots of people call You in the morning, Lord
Lots of people call You in the evening, Lord
Lord please, hear our cry
Please, hear our voice
Lord please, hear my voice
While you're sitting high up there
Don't forget my name
While you're sitting high up there
Please remember my name
