In the heart of the world Africa stands
Tall and proud and Africa has style
And dances with rhythm a vibrant call
From ancient wisdom deep and vast
To future hopes that ever last
And the African rainforests
Where the wild spirits hide

And Africa will forever shine
A treasure truly so divine and
Precious memories will forever stay
Rivers like lifelines meander and flow
From the Congo’s embrace to the Nile’s gentle glow

Mountains all around Africa tall and proud
Kilimanjaro watches majestic and magical
And mountain peaks kiss the
Lord's blue sky where eagles take flight
Chasing the dawn into the arms of the light

And Africa is the place to be
As the warm sun shines brightly upon me
And the stars shine beautiful every night
And my heart is beating for Africa
And the stories been told
Of ancient traditions rich and bold

And Africa a continent of vibrant hue
Where cultures blend both old and new
A spirit strong a heart so bold
Africa a story waiting to be told

And African people are full of
Love and pride and there hard
Working too and they pray just
Like me and you

And African children laugher a melody sweet
As they play in the shadows in sun's golden heat
With dreams in their hearts they wanna be number one and
In Africa where land meets the sea

From the sands of the coast to the peaks of the land
Africa whispers a promise inviting us all to see and Africa is magically beautiful

So I'll cherish the beauty and strength of Africa
And I'll honor my journey and
And my memories deep in my heart
They stay Africa rises a beacon of life

And Africa is beautiful
It's more than just a dream come true
So let the world see and embrace the
Spirit of Africa brave and strong and
In every heartbeat and in every precious song Africa sings a place where we all belong.
Africa 🌍 🌍
