Homeland

words & music: Allan Thomas

All around the earth since the beginning of man
we've been the guardians of the homeland
all we do will come back down the line
what kind of world are we leaving behind
after we're long gone

*our hands hold the key to the way it will be tomorrow
we need to start with a change of heart today
it's up to you and me leave a legacy
do everything we can
we are the hope for the homeland

third planet from the sun she keep giving us signs
how can something so almighty
be so fragile at the same time
can't change what's over and done
but we're shaping the future of things to come
after we're long gone

*our hands hold the key to the way it will be tomorrow
we need to start with a change of heart today
it's up to you and me leave a legacy
do everything we can
we are the hope for the homeland

and I pray for the next generation to come
there's so much healing to be done

*our hands hold the key to the way it will be tomorrow
we need to start with a change of heart today
it's up to you and me leave a legacy
do everything we can
we are the hope for the homeland
