In Our Father's Name lyrics
In Our Father’s Name
In the long shadow of our family tree
That darkened once the heart in me
I found good reason to believe
In our frail seed.
And in our children’s eyes I watch it grow
As I watched it once in the early glow
Of my brothers’ and sisters’ eyes
Before our broken ties.
Our roots run deep in sorrow
And will hurt as much tomorrow
If we don’t try to end the blame
And restore peace, in our father’s name.
O the silver birch near our home
Embedded in black earth and stone,
Its branches lean together on high
In the clear blue sky.
Our roots run deep in sorrow
And will hurt as much tomorrow
If we don’t try to end the blame
And restore peace, in our Father’s name.
In the long long shadow of our family tree
That darkened once the heart in me
I found good reason to believe
In our frail seed.
