Tears from the Sun

Prayer
Oh Father, protect us
Show us your mercy
Guide us safe to the shores
Of all our hopes and dreams

We set sail with hope and promise
We set sail at his command
Tides and courage drive us onward
Searching for the golden land

Warming smiles greet our arrival
Curious strangers from afar
Banners blaze with lions and angels
You can't fight history
Who you are

Pray for the ones that you're leaving behind
For the treasures you're hoping to find
New worlds
Dream of the stories yet to be told
As we march for the cities of gold
Tears from the Sun

Conquistadors, Santa Maria
Peoples kneel in our domain
Replace your gods now with the true one
In golden cities
Ghosts remain

We set sail with hope and promise
We set sail with joyous song
Steering by a broken compass
With no sense of
Right or wrong
