"Trail Of Tears" lyrics
Pitney Meyer (Mo Pitney & Johnny Meyer) Lyrics
Alright, this is take one Trail of Tears
On the Trail of Tears hear the voice
Of the Cherokee who's crying in the wilderness
Pioneer you have a choice
To come and meet him at the table of forgiveness
Make straight the way valley's raise mountains bow down
Earth cries in wait for what was lost now to be found
Blood spilled on the ground
Hear it crying out
For a better word that's spoken
From the body that's been broken
On the Trail of Tears hear the voice
Of the Cherokee who's crying in the wilderness
Pioneer you have a choice
To come and meet him at the table of forgiveness
Make straight the way valley's raise mountains bow down
Earth cries in wait for what was lost now to be found
Great Spirit hovers near
With love that covers fear
So wade out where the water's deeper
I really am my brother's keeper
On the Trail of Tears hear the voice
Of the pioneer who's crying in the wilderness
Face the fear come rejoice
At the true thanksgiving table of redemption
Make straight the way valley's raise mountains bow down
Earth cries in wait for what was lost now to be found
The time is here the vision's clear
On the Trail of Tears
On the Trail of Tears hear the voice
Of the Cherokee who's crying in the wilderness
Pioneer you have a choice
To come and meet him at the table of forgiveness
Make straight the way valley's raise mountains bow down
Earth cries in wait for what was lost now to be found
Blood spilled on the ground
Hear it crying out
For a better word that's spoken
From the body that's been broken
On the Trail of Tears hear the voice
Of the Cherokee who's crying in the wilderness
Pioneer you have a choice
To come and meet him at the table of forgiveness
Make straight the way valley's raise mountains bow down
Earth cries in wait for what was lost now to be found
Great Spirit hovers near
With love that covers fear
So wade out where the water's deeper
I really am my brother's keeper
On the Trail of Tears hear the voice
Of the pioneer who's crying in the wilderness
Face the fear come rejoice
At the true thanksgiving table of redemption
Make straight the way valley's raise mountains bow down
Earth cries in wait for what was lost now to be found
The time is here the vision's clear
On the Trail of Tears
