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
