Lyrics
It's been said every man has a need to find his glory
Tooth and nail, his fortune at any cost
But I see it plain in the fields laid out before me
All not gained in honest shall be lost
Oh, the careless way we cast aside the cries of a stranger
What a ruthless age and it preys upon us all
Somewhere 'neath the anguish and the anger
Sweet charity's there just a-waitin' on a call
Oh, sister, don't you know it well?
You sow the seed, but you just can't tell
Oh, from the father to the soldier's son
Love's gonna keep them, every one
Oh, let the hallelujah play
Sing it together in the old-time way
Every stone must fall, every fear must fade
Every river's gotta carry on
Can't you hear the wretched wheels filled with disaster?
Listen to the wreckin' rumble of the mighty gears
Bolds of war, they're fallin', fallin' faster every day
On a whim and a whisper in the tyrant's ear
But we shall not cave to the house of deception
We shall not cave to the kings livin' only for the crown
We steady on through seas of desperation
Oh, captain, won't you set that compass for the common ground?
Oh, sister, don't you know it well?
You sow the seed, but you just can't tell
Oh, from the father to the soldier's son
Love's gonna keep them, every one
Oh, let the hallelujah play
Sing it together in the old-time way
Every stone must fall, every fear must fade
Every river's gotta carry on
Oh, sister, don't you know it well?
You sow the seed, but you just can't tell
Oh, from the father to the soldier's son
Love's gonna keep them, every one
Oh, let the hallelujah play
Sing it together in the old-time way
Every stone must fall, every fear must fade
Every river's gotta carry on
Every stone must fall, every fear must fade
Every river's gotta carry on
