Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Steady as the beating drum
Singing to the cedar flute
Seasons go and seasons come
Bring the corn and bear the fruit
[Verse 2]
By the water sweet and clean
Where the mighty sturgeon lives
Plant the squash and reap the bean
All the earth, our mother, gives
[Verse 3]
Oh, Great Spirit, hear our song
Help us keep the ancient ways
Keep the sacred fire strong
Walk in balance all our days
[Verse 4]
Seasons go and seasons come
Steady as the beating drum
Plum to seed to bud to plum
Steady as the beating drum
