Righteous Refrain

[Chorus]
O lion lion
Your righteousness is bold
Not the fool’s rage
But the courage you hold
You stand your ground when truth is at stake
You roar for the innocent for the kingdom’s sake
Lion lion
Bold

[Verse 1]
Golden grass hides the amber eye
Sharp quills passing by
Buffalo thunder across the wide plain
Sight stops the hunter despite the hunger pain
Wisdom watches where the foolish might die

[Pre-Chorus]
But when the hyena threatens the cub
When the weak cry out for love
The lion remembers its teeth and its crown
He never bows down

[Chorus]
O lion lion
Your righteousness is bold
Not the fool’s rage
But the courage you hold
You stand your ground when truth is at stake
You roar for the innocent for the kingdom’s sake
Lion lion
Bold

[Verse 2]
Creatures hide in the rocky crack
Small things can’t fight back
But a mane was grown for the war
God gave the power and God gave the roar
Defend the right keep the wicked in check

[Pre-Chorus]
But when the hyena threatens the cub
When the weak cry out for love
The lion remembers its teeth and its crown
He never bows down

[Chorus]
O lion lion
Your righteousness is bold
Not the fool’s rage
But the courage you hold
You stand your ground when truth is at stake
You roar for the innocent for the kingdom’s sake
Lion lion
Bold

[Bridge]
Righteousness is never the same for everyone
The rock badger flees from the sun
While the lion stands tall
Answer your call
Never let the innocent fall
Protect them all

[Chorus]
O lion lion
Your righteousness is bold
Not the fool’s rage
But the courage you hold
You stand your ground when truth is at stake
You roar for the innocent for the kingdom’s sake
Lion lion
Bold
Lion lion
Bold
