lyrics

far from our heritage of hunger
though we we'll always keep it safe within our hearts
we labor gladly on this earth among her
beauty and plenty, where every seed starts
found a warm embrace in winter
a milder storm to melt icy sorrows
we work all the day
give it all we’ve found
for the hope of rewarding tomorrows
this is the place where we were meant to be
shrugging off fear in hope of living free
more fully than in self we strive to set aside the 'you or I'
a common goal, a peaceful restitution
a life spent in toil, not idly in remission
peace upon this land we shape with patience by our hopes create
a world where all can share alike where we can find a common spark
more similar to what's inside an echo in the dark we hide from
more than everything we’ve done
this is going to be
the place our children always see
when they look up at you and me
