[Intro]
Jah love is true
An' Jah love is so pure
An' Jah Jah love is someting each an' every one of us got to endure
'Cause, for inner sickness, Jah Jah love is the cure

[Verse 1]
Say, some of dem a talk 'bout under mi
Some of dem a talk 'bout side of mi
But, none of dem remember di almighty
None of dem remember di almighty (So)

[Chorus]
Over mi, Jah Jah rule over mi (Hey-a!)
Over mi, Jah Jah rule over mi

[Verse 2]
Him let mi be superior over fishes in di sea
Him let mi be superior over birds in di tree
Him let mi have more sense than a monkey
Him let mi better loving than a chimpanzee
Him provide water when I'm thirsty
Him also give mi food when I'm feeling hungry (Hey-a!)

[Chorus]
Over mi, Jah Jah rule over mi (Hey-a!)
Over mi, Jah Jah rule over mi
Jah Jah give mi my ability
Just mi fi use it very wisely (Hey!)
Over mi, Jah Jah rule over mi (Bummo!)
Over mi, Jah Jah guide over mi

[Verse 3]
Jah Jah is a one of peace an' rod
Jah Jah is a man you could-a never outsmart
Whether you be tall, whether you be short
Whether you be stupid, or whether you be smart
You could-a drive a car, or push a hand cart
Put Jah Jah love, say, in a your heart
An' try to put a stop to all these blood bath

[Chorus]
Over mi, Jah Jah rule over mi (Hey-a!)
Over mi, Jah Jah guide over mi (Bummo!)
Over mi, Jah Jah rule over mi

[Verse 4]
So, nothing in dis world is impossible to mi
Nothing in dis world is impossible to mi
I swim on dry land, I walk pon sea
I make twenty dollars look like shagry (Hey-a!)

[Chorus]
Over mi, Jah Jah rule over mi (Bummo!)
Over mi, Jah Jah guide over mi

[Verse 5]
Lord of mercy, dog a fussy
Uh, fi wash, she a could done, Selassie
Selassie I, Ras Tafari
Love him an' live, if you hate him you will die
Cah, when mi come a dance, I don't act shy
Don't stop chat-a 'till mi throat run dry
Emperor appear in a him khaki suit
Babylon a chuck it in a dem big black boot
Dem have to bow an' salute
Aristocrats are so pancoot (Hey-he-he-he-hey, bummo)

[Chorus]
Over mi, Jah Jah rule over mi
Over mi, Jah Jah guide over mi (So)
Spar with mi an' you are hungry (Gal)
Spar with mi, you are hungry

[Verse 6]
I give you good food, mi no give you patty
I'm talking 'bout di good fried fish an' bammy
Di good [?] salt fish an' ackee (Just)
Spar with mi, you are hungry

[Outro]
Jah Jah is a man of peace an' love
Jah Jah is a one you could never outsmart
Whether you be tall, whether you be short
Don't act stupid an' don't act smart
Put Jah Jah love right in a your heart
An' try to put a stop to all these blood bath
