[Instrumental intro]
[Verse 1]
Years of trouble here that blind us
Danger closing in
All we know we leave behind us
And we won't be back again
[Verse 2]
Oh, my brother
Come and take my hand
We'll walk together
'Til we reach the promised land
[Verse 3]
All the sun and the pain here
Are greater than the miles
Of desert sand
[Verse 4]
In the land of milk and honey
There's fruit on every tree
Our feet blistered and bloody
But our children will be free
[Verse 5]
Oh, my sister
Come and take my hand
We'll walk together
'Til that promised land
[Verse 6]
All the pain we left behind us
Is greater than the miles
Of desert sand
Greater than the miles
