Lyric

When you turn around

There is a parent

Behind that parent—

There is their parent

Behind that—

Their parent’s parent:

Parents upon parents

Continuing into the deep past

When you look ahead

There are children

Before that child—

There is their child;

And before that

That child’s child—

Children’s children

On and on

Fading to the edge

Of the future

In such a landscape

God’s baton

Has fallen

The blood-stained Earth

Lies fallen

The blood-stained Earth

Lies fallen

The blood-stained Earth

Lies fallen
