[Verse 1]
God of my fathers
Huddled in the harbor
Every man an ocean from his home
Their captors could not keep them
When they heard the drums of freedom
The dream of a kingdom
In a land they've never known
[Verse 2]
God of my fathers
Strangers in this country
Pilgrims on these dusty roads
Across the great plains
In the bellies of the steel trains
To stake a new claim
In that wilderness of hope
[Chorus]
And like my fathers, I am looking for a home
Looking for a home beyond the sea
So be my God and guide me
'Till I lie beneath these hills
And let the great God of my fathers
Be the great God of my children still
God of my fathers
Huddled in the harbor
Every man an ocean from his home
Their captors could not keep them
When they heard the drums of freedom
The dream of a kingdom
In a land they've never known
[Verse 2]
God of my fathers
Strangers in this country
Pilgrims on these dusty roads
Across the great plains
In the bellies of the steel trains
To stake a new claim
In that wilderness of hope
[Chorus]
And like my fathers, I am looking for a home
Looking for a home beyond the sea
So be my God and guide me
'Till I lie beneath these hills
And let the great God of my fathers
Be the great God of my children still
