God Of My Fathers
God of my father's Huddled in the harbor Every man an ocean from his home
Their captors could not keep them When they heard the drums of freedom The dream of a kingdom In a land they've never known
God of my father's Strangers in this country Pilgrims on these dusty roads
Across the great plains In the bellies of the steel trains To stake a new claim In that wilderness of hope
And like my father's I am looking for a home I'm looking for a home Beyond the sea
So be my God and guide me Till I lie beneath these hills And let the great God of my father's Be the great God of my children still
God of my grandfathers Gone these many years now Well, I guess they're shining like the sun
And I envision them Grinning at the finish And they smile, and they smile 'Cause they love to see me run, whoa

So be my God and guide me Till I lie beneath these hills And let the great God of my father's Be the great God of my children still, yeah, oh
So, now we're counting stars And counting sand Little feet and little hands We're counting joys
We pray, You'll know them As You knew us when You wove us As You hold us hold them Please hold them
Like their father They are looking for a home Looking for a home Beyond the sea
So be their God and guide them Till they lie beneath these hills And let the great God of their father Be the great God of their children
Let the great God of my father's Be the great God of my children still
Oh, whoa
