His [Db] name
_ My [Eb] mind runs back _
[Bb] When I was in Nigeria, Africa
[Eb] _ I was walking the grounds of [Gb] Badagry
And I was walking with one of [Eb] the Nigerian sisters
[Eb] And they had took me and my husband to this museum
Where they took the actual slaves _
[Cm] And they took us in this room
[Eb] And the actual chains that they put on the slaves
[C] The sister called my husband over
She [F] says, um, brother boy, can you come over here
And [Bb]
put these chains on your neck
[Fm] And [Bb] the chains were so heavy
When he put it around his neck, his [Eb] shoulders dropped
_ _ And she says, sister Valerie, come over here
And let me put it around your neck
And at that time, sister Maria [Bb] was on the trip along with us
And she [C] put it around her neck
And they began to put the actual chains around our [Eb] feet _
The cold iron steel chains
They were so heavy
_ [F] And I was standing there and I said, [F] Lord
You brought us from [B] such a long ways
[Cm] _ But in the midst of it, God, I still love you
My [F] soul still loves you
I know my [Abm] ancestors had to say
[Gm] When they were going through [Eb] that their soul [B] still loved you
[Eb]
Being mistreated, not understood
But my soul still loves you _
[Gm] Hey, glory
_ _ _ [Eb] And they began to put the [F] chains around our ankles
And glory, [Gm] hallelujah _ _
And the praise was ringing down [Eb] in my heart
And as we [C] came out of the museum, my eyes [F] filled with water
Began to fill with water
And I said, sister, you know, there's [Eb] a song that I sing back in the States
It's called My Soul Loves Jesus
And [Cm] if you was to sing [F] this in your native language
Which is called Iropa
What would the words be?
And it went something like this
_ _ Oh kami, the Ron Jesus
_ [Eb] _ _ _
Oh [Ab] kami, the [A] Ron Jesus
[F] _ _ _ [B] Oh _ kami, [Cm] _ _ the Ron Jesus
[F] _ _ _ _ Aloha, logo
[Bb] Oh _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
kami, _ [Cm] _ _ the Ron Jesus
_ [Eb] Jesus, that means Jesus in their language
Hey, _ _ [Bb] whenever I say Jesus, I don't care what language it [A] is
I feel it
Oh kami, [Ab] the Ron Jesus
[Eb] Somebody say Jesus
[Ab] _ _ [Eb] Jesus Jesus
[G] _ Oh _ _ _ _ [C] kami, _ [Fm] the Ron _ [F] _ Jesus
_ [Bb] _
_ _ _ [Fm] _ Aloha, _ [Ab] logo
_ _ _ [Abm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
