troubadour #Yusuf / #caturday #CatStevens since the 70's...

here's the charming official animated music video of the title track from his most recent album (officially released today), #King of a #Land:
Lyrics:

If I was a king of a land
I’d free every woman and man
I’d let them go
I’d set them free, to serve You

If I knew every fish in the sea
And every bird in the tree
I’d hear their call
I’d hear them speak Your name

If I ran the schools of this world
I’d teach every boy and girl
I’d let them learn the truth
I’d let them know Your glory

If I had stairs to the sky
I’d raise my voice up there high
I’d want the world to hear
Your perfect words and thank You

If I had a mountain of gold
I’d try to feed every poor soul
And give them hope again
And let them taste Your bounty

If I could reach every dream
I still would search the unseen
To find a way
That leads us to Your mercy

If I was a king of a land
I’d free every woman and man
I’d let them go
I’d set them free to serve You
