When under trial, let no one say: I am being tried by God. For with evil things God cannot be tried nor does he himself try anyone. James 1:13

[jeudikompa]

Thank you so much David Rudder.we love you.

[jeudikompa]

Let's sing together my brothers and sisters.Haiti i'am sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[beadbop]

@pologeo17

Oh, would you just go away and fuck yourself, please? That is, if you can actually find your micro-cock.

Your 'god' is almost as fucked-up as you are.

I hope a building falls on your head, and the cadaver dogs never find your rotting stench.

[pologeo17]

@beadbop i pray that the Lord put a curse upon you.

[beadbop]

@pologeo17 Oh, I'll bet you do pray about me! Especially after I busted you out and got your stolen website taken away from you...THIEF!

I just can't picture any gods or lords or messiahs putting curses on folks. Methinks that you might be praying to the Dark Lord himself - Satan - which would make you a devil worshiper.

p.s. Nobody likes you and you have no friends, not even in god or Satan or whatever fictional character you're praying to this week.

[pologeo17]

@beadbop dont be surprised if u get a disease and die in the next 2 or 3 years HAHA

[beadbop]

@pologeo17

That's very Christian of you to say so.

Remember, Mister Jesus is always watching you!

[durant1983]

@pologeo17 you are so foolish, do you have any kind of education, i was unsure people still speak he way you're speaking...damn fool, you even laught like a fool...

[vincybabydoll]

tHIS IS LIKE MORE THAN TEN YEARS OLD RIGHT AND STILL AMAZING!

[Tracy85able]

hmm

[Tracy85able]

its is so amazing when i heard this song i remembered hearing it before the earthquake but hearing it it now i felt like he sang it because he know something was going to happen. he apologise before all this catastrophe which showed he acknowledged haiti. this is an example for us to do the same it can happen to us

[shaymia16]

Well, he really sang it because of all the poverty and negativity which the country has endured all these years. Not abt the earthquake. Curruption, financial ruin, crime etc

[Lyndi1992]

haiti i'm sorry

[Genesis191211]

When there is angrish in Haiti its still Africa crying. Finally we are turning our heads to help resstore your glory. However I still think that we misunderstand you. they say the middle passage is gone but over crowed boats still haunt our lives. Personally I think that this song should be sang in churches all over the world.

[katanya29]

let's try to get this song out once again. CNN needs to hear this

[royear1717]

pure at heart love for people not country god bless rudder, i've always love this song.

[MrSpiceman73]

After 22 years, this song is soooo effective and has earn its rightfull place in history. Thank you David for your inspiration. If anyone can, let us promote this song to be the redemption song for our fellow Haitians and their country. God bless.....

[ericaltrini]

All the way from Trinidad & Tobago - we are praying for a speedy recovery of the Land of Haiti - we are very sorry..........as someone mentioned it could happen to anyone of us in the Caribbean but for now it has happen to you and now is time for us to all help to rebuild our sister isle..........as David Rudder said "we are sorry". May God bless the land all over again.....for all the children and the children that are being born in the devastation of Haiti.

[katanya29]

isn't there a way we could get this song out to the world? This is sooooo the right time

[amish49]

Hail to Haiti,Hail to Ma!ma!Hail to the Queen,the closest passage to AFRICA in the West Indies,HAITI!like Peter Tosh once said How you doing AFRICA,WE see the pain,NO WOMAN NO CRY,NA cry Na cry every..EVERY little ting,every thing will be all right.

Much LOVE!

Tony Joseph,

St.Lucia.

[gawainf]

This is such a powerful powerful powerful song. This epitomizes everything Haiti. Everything we as Caribbean people have and are still going through. Let us never forget Haiti because we can possibly fall into this same line of devastation

[listrajan]

All of america is focussed on Bono,Rhiana etc performing on friday but none had the preditions of this great artist..This is for sure a symbolizing song ,,,well done rudder..Soca Prophet..would luv to see him perform this to an american and world stage/

[w314eva1]

I went to the University of the West Indies on friday and heard this song in a play wrttien by Derek Walcott and swear i got teary eyed. Being a history student I know what Haiti was and what it now. It's so sad to see what's happening there. I hope for fast relief.

[detopdawg]

"When there is anguish in Port-au-Prince it's still Africa crying..........."

[amish49]

From your brothers and sisters in St,Lucia we LOVE you dearly Haiti WE are sorry to see fall,we feel your pain,HAITI WE ARE SORRY.

[HanahKiss]

Always love listening to this song especially last couple days. God is Great & I know we should not ask why?| pray for my Caribbean brothers & sisters God is love.

[cool4rocknroll]

[Dmezzosoprano]

Haiti, my best wishes & comfort for all.

[Spliffymilner]

After seein the Devastation in haiti a few days ago this was the first song that came to my mind. I have been singing it and crying since.. With Love from St. Vincent and the Grenadines

[esbaron]

As a Caribbean brother, let's all come together to assist our own.

God Bless you Haiti and may he bring comfort to those who are in despair right now. From the commonwealth of Dominica with love

[ciquala]

My prayers goe out to my brothers and sisters in Haiti. God's Grace be with them.

[soundsunlikely]

Thankyou for having this here. Solidarity with all the people of Haiti. We'll do what we can to help. I had this record back in the 80's and sadly lost it. It was always moving.

[sweetophe]

I will like take this time ask everyone give something to the red cross i just did that. It do not have to be much whatever you can give. Please say aprayer for the our brothers and sisters in haiti. Haiti am so sorry we forgot about you . STAY STRONG AND KEEP GOD IN YOUR PRAYERS.

[friscob75]

haiti , we pray for you

[swann2511]

For the people of Haiti..I pray the the Might God look upon you and shine His light upon you. Father I pray that all may be healed and that there be no more sickness no more dying no more pain. Provide for them Jesus take care of them and hold them in your arms. Haiti i'm sorry. Haiti i'm sorry. One day we'll turn our heads and restore your glory. One in by God's grace

[MusicLikeRegin]

Let's all unite as one people & pray for the people of Haiti suffering from this devasting tragedy. To the awesome Haitian brothers (Jacque, Pierre, Astrel--"Young Boy", Donald & Livingston) from Maryland back in the 80's, I'll never forget the wisdom & knowledge you'll shared of "the land of hills" and the Carribean on a whole. I began to read Longman Sec. school histories for the Carribbean "The People Who Came" Book 3. as a refresher to reflect on our place in history . Peace & Blessing

[babygoesRAWR17]

I left Haiti sov long ago and right now I have the urge to go back and help. I want to make a difference for at least 2 children, and that is my goal. I love you Haiti, La perle des antilles

[TheRudeBwoyC]

This songs touches on the "Uncle Tom" spirit of the other Caribbean Nations towards Haiti at that time. We turned our back on them to stay on good standings with Europe. But they are the reason why we are "free" and "independant" today. The first western slaves to be free; the only western slaves gain freedom by fighting for it; The first independent western nation; the begining of the fall of Napoleon. We need to restore their glory.

[Cream794]

God Bless the people of Haiti.

[joellat]

Haiti:

Toussaint was a mighty man

And to make matters worse he was black

Black back in the days when black men knew

Their place was in the back

But this rebel he walked through Napoleon

Who though, that wasnt very nice

And so today my brothers in Haiti

They still pay the price

[joellat]

CHORUS

Haiti Im sorry

Weve misunderstood you

One day well turn our heads

And look inside you

Haiti Im sorry

Haiti Im sorry

One day well turn our heads

Restore your glory

[joellat]

Many hands reach out to St. Georges

And are still reaching out

And to those frightened,

Foolish men of Pretoria

We still scream and shout

We came together in song

To steady the Horn of Africa

But the papaloa come and the babyloa go

And still we dont seem to care

[joellat]

When there is anguish in Port au Prince

Dont you know its still Africa crying

We are outing fires in far away places

When our neighbors are burning

The middle passage is gone

So How come

Overcrowded boats still haunt our lives

I refuse to believe that we good people

Will forever turn our hearts

And our eyesaway

[opinionated666]

Please someone post words

[midnightfantasy75]

I am praying for all of Haiti... this is a horrible tragedy. I wish I could go to Hait right now! :( I fell in love with Haiti when I visited in 2008... it is home to the most loving and humble people I have ever met! It lives in my heart always! Mwen Renmen'ou Haiti !!!!

[bstoute]

Prophetic....

[trinidreamer85]

Wow, your music always has a great message!!

[lpforlyfe]

I am asking all who can see this comment to pray for the Haitians... At this moment, I think that the most important thing to do is to pray for them... that is all most of us can do. This is still shocking me, and everytime I think about it I cry

[maturedteacher]

Too late, too late shall be the cry.While it is good to talk and do something about the genocide in Somalia and Rewanda. Right here in our backyards the people of this impovrished country have been appealing to our better judgment and seeking help.We turned a blind and now with forked tongue we say we are sorry. Better late than never i suppose Action speaks louder than woeds though.I am indeed sorry.I tried my best to help and give my two cents worth in 2002. It is our responsibility to help

[NilemetGanges]

I think of all the blessings T&T has, and how we have squandered them, and reflect on the constant series of disasters in Haiti, and I can only say this world is truly not a fair one.

[blueyeindian]

My heart breaks for my brothers and sisters in Hati. Know that we love you and our prayers are with you...

[aadivah]

to my caribbean brothers n sisters.. we need to Rally around dem.. help them restore their glory

[zucchinigreen]

God please bless Haiti and protect them. Let us know how we can help.

[Vendoldavid]

thank you so much for this record...

[cool4rocknroll]

@Vendoldavid No problem. I'm sorry to hear about tragedy in Haiti with the earthquake.

[cool4rocknroll]

My heart goes out to the victims of Haiti. What a tragic loss. But that's life. We just have to overcome these tough times.
