Oh Mother (feat. Jessica Childress)

Our arms are tired from the weight of your evil

Our hearts are full of the tears of the dead

He sits in silence, watching the violence

He watches the rivers run red

Above they sing Hallelujah

Mainly sing the songs of old

Songs of freedom, songs of justice

Outlives to echo the words of hope

She was born

She was born beneath the moonlight

And the stars called out her name (her name, her name, her name, her name)

She wrote her history in crimson

She heard the echoes of their pain

She wrote the magic of her heart line

Upon the wrinkles of her skin

Out stretched her arms to heaven

Is there a savior for their sins?

Oh mother, can't you hear the children mourn?

Oh help, I've journeyed so far from home

Oh healer, give us comfort where we grieve

Reveal us, show us what we built at sea

Can you help me sail?

And you keep us safe

And we cry
