Kumbaya, my Lord, Kumbaya.
Oh Lord, Kumbaya.

Kumbaya, my Lord, Kumbaya.
Kumbaya, my Lord, Kumbaya.
Kumbaya, my Lord, Kumbaya.
Oh Lord, Kumbaya.
1. Verse:
For the sun that rises in the sky
For the rythm of the falling rain
For all life, great or small
For all that’s true, for all you do.

Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya
Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya
Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya,
O Lord Kumbaya

Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya
Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya
Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya,
O Lord Kumbaya
2. Verse:
For one second on this world you made,
For the love that will never fade,
For a heart beating with joy,
For all that’s real, for all we feel.
Chorus:
Kumbaya ma Lord, Kumbaya
Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya
Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya,
O Lord Kumbaya
Chorus:
Kumbaya ma Lord, Kumbaya
Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya
Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya,
O Lord Kumbaya
O Lord, Kumbaya,
O Lord, Kumbaya.
