Nelson Mandela – His life was dedicated to serving humankind by giving a standard to the world for eradicating injustice, oppression, and racism. I offer this tribute song for use in memorializing this great man from South Africa….Nelson “Madiba” Mandela!
“Mandela” (Afro-Cuban & swing)
Verse 1 Sing this song of praise for Mandela
Strong and brave this man
Peace and justice for South Africa
Long was his fight to save this land
Verse 2 Years in prison there was Mandela
Heart and mind still free
Liberation for South Africa
Freedom for all ..with dignity
Bridge…..Faith deep inside gave strength to his cause
The world…wanting to see…him go free…it would be
Father of the Nation that was he
Madiba they called him……..Mandela
Verse 3 Liberty the call..from Mandela
Apartheid must go
Racial justice in South Africa
Our one human family will show

Kind and Bold and Wise
A new beginning for South Africa
