Wasn’t That a Time lyrics

[Verse 1]
Our fathers bled at Valley Forge
The snow was red with blood
Their faith was worn at Valley Forge
Their faith was brotherhood

[Chorus]
Wasn't that a time? (Wasn't that a time?)
Wasn't that a time?
A time to try the soul of man
Wasn't that a terrible time?

[Verse 2]
Brave men who died at Gettysburg
Now lie in soldier's graves
But there they stemmed the slavery tide
And there their faith was saved

[Chorus]
Wasn't that a time? (Wasn't that a time?)
Wasn't that a time?
A time to try the soul of man
Wasn't that a terrible time?

[Verse 3]
The sixties born in a flash of fire
Our faith was born anew
Our lives were free and a beacon fire
And our life was brotherhood
[Chorus]
Wasn't that a time? (Wasn't that a time?)
Wasn't that a time?
A time to free the soul of man
Wasn't that a wonderful time?

[Verse 4]
Our faith cries out, "We have no fear"
We dare to reach our hand
To other neighbors far and near
To friends in every land

[Chorus]
Isn't this a time? (Isn't this a time?)
Isn't this a time?
A time to free the soul of man
Isn't this a wonderful time? (Yeah)

[Outro]
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful
Wonderful, wonderful
