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
