Resurrection Band - Afrikaans

I hear gunfire, see the blood run, feel the rage
I see a black man, see a coloured man in a cage
The sweat of miners digging diamonds, digging graves
To feed the boss-man, to feed his family, to feed his slaves
Men are cursing, women praying for release
But when a white man kills one of "them" no one sees
From Capetown to Pretoria, to Johannesburg
There is a crying of people dying that can be heard

I hear the gunfire, see the blood run, smell the fear
You lock your minds up, shut the curtains, you close your ears

Forget the black man, neglect his baby, ignore his hell
We need apartheid to keep the animal in his cell
You sweep the pavement, shine the buildings, display the maid
You say: "Republic", I say: "Blind man, it's a cage"
God makes the colour but the colour doesn't make you God
Oh, and in the judgement He will remember the ones you've robbed
Without the Lord's love this injustice will prevail
Until Jesus is the only Master we'll never break the bars of this jail
