|
If I could walk on the water |
|
If only I could fly |
|
Over this border |
|
To freedom before I die |
|
A woman cries beside a wall |
|
Of names |
|
A broken hearted witness |
|
To the shame |
|
She asks, "Who will take the blame?" |
|
She's asking you and I |
|
You and I |
|
Stand or fall--welcome to this promised land |
|
Stand or fall--don't let it die at the hands of man |
|
For it's here we fall. |
|
So deliver the children |
|
With silence in their eyes |
|
They carry the burden |
|
Of a world filled with lies |
|
Poison in our rivers, oil on the sand |
|
The hunger cries of a homeless man |
|
A rain of acid that burns our land |
|
But where were you and I |
|
You and I |
|
Oh come and walk by my side |
|
Together we'll watch the |
|
Arms of the world open wide |
|
For it's nation time |
|
Nation time! Go! |
