Words & Music by Shimshai

Clean hands and a heart so pure, ever had faith like this before?
Clean hands and a heart so pure, for narrow is the pathway to Zion’s door

As I walk this road to holy Mt Zion
Humble be thy ways & you got to stand strong like Jah lion
As I walk this road to holy Mt Zion
Eternal be thy faith & you got to carry on, in this Armageddeon
Stand strong like Jah lion, carry on, in this Armageddeon
Stand strong like Jah lion, carry on, in this Armageddeon

With clean hands and a heart so pure, ever had faith like this before
Clean hands and a heart so pure, for narrow is the pathway to Zions door

Attach thyself not to this here physical manifestation
But live to let thy spirit seek its true destination
Of creation, destination
Creation, destination

Na na na…

Jah Rastafari, you are I salvation, you help I realize
The love surrounding us all, in every situation here with I and I

This song remains one of my all time favorites and to this day I sing it in almost every event and concert. I think originally I wasn't sure where the 'Jah Rastafari' chant fit in best, so it ended up in 2 songs and makes a nice recurring theme. Many people around the world continue to sing the chant and have no idea where it originally came from, which is right here! The early 'na na' vocal line comes right from Stevie Wonder, Another Star.
