Forefather
Oh, carry me
To the hills over yonder
So I may rest
Beneath the setting sun
I've given love
And all possessions
I've done my time
And put life on this earth
Remember me
As a light to my children
I go in peace
As my father did before me.
Now I'll be the ocean
I'm gonna be the sky
I'm gonna be the sunlight and the mountains you climb
In your dreams at night
Back to the land
Where God's creations
Sleep beneath
The tender setting sun....
Oh, carry me
To the hills over yonder
So I may rest
Beneath the setting sun....
