Lyrics:

[Chorus]
Every morning I rise
Peace to my mind when I hail Ras Tafari
Knowing His eyes are on I
Jah be my guide, I reside with the Most High
Even inna drought I nuh cry
These are the times when I hail Ras Tafari
Knowing that Jah will provide for I

[verse 1]
I said He giveth and He taketh away
Understanding nothing is belonging to man
Earth will provide you with the necessity
Me say simplicity is what we use in these days
And Ras Tafari prophesied there would be wars
Many possessions would be lost
What you live is what you leave with, so
Hold it close, it's the only thing that's yours

[Chorus]
'Cos Every morning I rise
Peace to my mind when I hail Ras Tafari
Knowing His eyes are on I
Jah be my guide, I reside with the Most High
Even inna drought I nuh cry
These are the times when I hail Ras Tafari
Knowing that Jah will provide for I

[verse 2]
Because we know Jah, we cannot walk away
Heart of the Lion is telling us not to stay far
‘Cos when it all passes away
To abide in Your presence is the only thing I pray for
‘Cos it is beautiful to know
Storms all around and You safely guide the way home
Yes, You lightening my load
Keep me right here on the straight road

[Chorus]
Every morning I rise
Peace to my mind when I hail Ras Tafari
Knowing His eyes are on I
Jah be my guide, I reside with the Most High
Even inna drought I nuh cry
These are the times when I hail Ras Tafari
Knowing that Jah will provide for I

[bridge]
Haile love I, you never forget
Haile bless I, don't you ever forget
Haile love I, don't you ever forget
Haile bless I, don't you ever...

[Chorus]
Every morning I rise
Peace to my mind when I hail Ras Tafari
Knowing His eyes are on I
Jah be my guide, I reside with the Most High
Even inna drought I nuh cry
These are the times when I hail Ras Tafari
Knowing that Jah will provide for I

[outro]
Haile is the power and the knowledge and the key
One, two, three, the Holy Trinity, yeah
