(Verse 1)
From the mountains rising red at dawn,
To the rivers singing as they run,
Every valley lifts a grateful song —
This is the land the Lord has made.
The lions roaming on the golden plain,
The showers falling like a gentle rain,
All creation calls Your holy name —
This is the land the Lord has made.
(Chorus)
Oh, the land — Your glory is revealed in every mile.
Oh, the land — Your beauty wears the colors of Your smile.
You shaped the earth with majesty, with wisdom in Your hand,
And Africa declares Your praise — O Lord, You formed the land.
(Verse 2)
The desert winds that whisper through the night,
The jungle canopy alive with light,
The stars above us burning bold and bright —
All bear the mark of heaven’s King.
The drum of thunder rolling through the sky,
The ancient baobab standing tall and high,
These wonders teach our hearts to testify —
All bear the mark of heaven’s King.
(Chorus)
Oh, the land — Your glory is revealed in every mile.
Oh, the land — Your beauty wears the colors of Your smile.
You shaped the earth with majesty, with wisdom in Your hand,
And Africa declares Your praise — O Lord, You formed the land.
(Bridge)
When You spoke, the mountains trembled into life…
Mungu wetu, wewe ni mkuu!
When You breathed, the plains awoke in morning light…
Uliumba kwa utukufu,
In every sunrise, Lord, Your power stands…
Your beauty written in the land!
(Final Chorus)
Oh, the land — Your glory is revealed in every mile.
Oh, the land — Your beauty wears the colors of Your smile.
You shaped the earth with majesty, with mercy in Your hand,
And Africa lifts up its voice — O Lord, You formed the land.
