Oh,
the
light
is
shining
bright
today
We
walk
in
the
path
that
was
paved
for
us
Malama,
see
the
glory
in
the
morning
sun
It
is
time
to
rise,
it
is
time
to
sing
We
look
to
the
mountains
where
the
help
comes
from
In
the
land
of
Zambia,
the
spirit
is
strong
We
remember
the
days
when
we
searched
for
the
light
When
the
road
was
heavy
and
the
future
not
bright
But
there
is
a
wisdom,
a
secret
revealed
A
promise
of
healing
that
is
finally
sealed
The
burden
is
lifted,
the
chains
fall
away
We
walk
in
the
power
of
this
brand
new
day
Oh,
Malama,
sing
it
to
the
sky
Holiness
in
Zambia,
lift
your
head
up
high
They
came
with
the
formula,
the
grace
is
our
own
Seated
in
the
beauty
of
a
heavenly
throne
Neyo
ni
mundubile,
the
path
is
so
clear
We
conquer
the
shadows,
we
conquer
the
fear
With
the
formula
of
life,
we
are
standing
so
tall
Watching
the
blessings
beginning
to
fall
We
see
the
foundation,
the
work
of
the
heart
A
masterpiece
crafted
right
from
the
start
No
more
the
struggle,
no
more
the
tears
We
are
washing
away
all
the
weight
of
the
years
From
the
valleys
of
green
to
the
rising
of
sun
The
race
for
the
spirit
has
only
begun
We
hold
to
the
truth
that
was
given
to
hold
Turning
the
iron
to
shimmering
gold
Oh,
Malama,
sing
it
to
the
sky
Holiness
in
Zambia,
lift
your
head
up
high
They
came
with
the
formula,
the
grace
is
our
own
Seated
in
the
beauty
of
a
heavenly
throne
Neyo
ni
mundubile,
the
path
is
so
clear
We
conquer
the
shadows,
we
conquer
the
fear
With
the
formula
of
life,
we
are
standing
so
tall
Watching
the
blessings
beginning
to
fall (
Instrumentation
swells,
percussion
intensifies)
Itβ
s
the
formula
for
living,
the
formula
for
love
Sent
from
the
heavens,
descending
from
above
Makebi
is
singing,
the
chorus
is
wide
With
holiness
flowing
like
a
deep,
endless
tide
We
won't
turn
back,
we
are
moving
ahead
By
the
power
of
mercy,
we
are
finally
led
Oh,
Malama,
sing
it
to

here
to

in
the
light
today
Zambia,

shine,
shine (
