Lyrics:
V1
We walk this land
With the past souls
That were here, and
For them the bell tolls
V2
They guide to help us know
Man’s spirit stems
From that eternal glow
Chorus
The earth is scared
Not a possession
We own and dispose
Or an obsession
When kept fed, it grows
And grows
V3
Generations will cry
Our wounded earth
Will perish and die
Without a rebirth
V4
Her wisdom will anoint
To keep balance within
We’re at a crisis point
Chorus
The earth is sacred
Not a possession
We own and dispose
Or an obsession
When kept fed, it grows
And grows
Fade out
We have a sacred duty
To keep the earth well
She’s a gift of beauty
Shared, so others may dwell
The earth is sacred
Not a possession
The earth is sacred
