People dancing in the street
To a groovy reggae beat
Yet everything in life is bitter-sweet

Sitting in a rum bar
Won't get you very far
You think life's a big house
And a fancy car

'Cause your heart can be lonely
Though you have life and plenty
Moving with everyone to the cemetery

You need Jesus in the plan
To direct this island
It's not all about sea shore and sand

Let's teach the children right
Let them have an insight
It's all about the blood of Jesus Christ
So hear me now my brother
You need to know the Savior
To make everything alright

This island needs Jesus
This island needs Jesus
He's the Mighty King of Kings
He's the Conquering Lord of Lord's
This island needs Jesus
This island needs Jesus
Come and sing on praises to the King

Members of Parliament
And Heads of Government
To get it right won't cost you a cent
Salvation is free
It's there for you and me
Jesus paid the price at Calvary
Sing praises unto Him
Let's glorify the King
Magnify and Bless His holy name
Teach Jesus in the schools
Let them know this is cool
Let His word be established
Don't be a fool

You need Jesus in the plan
To direct this island
It's not all about sea shore and sand

Let's teach the children right
Let them have an insight
It's all about the blood of Jesus Christ

This island needs Jesus
This island needs Jesus
He's the Mighty King of Kings
He's the Conquering Lord of Lord's
This island needs Jesus
This island needs Jesus
Come and sing on praises to the king

You need Jesus in the plan
To direct this island
It's not all about sea shore and sand

Let's teach the children right
Let them have an insight
