¶Lyrics / Text

To those who came before me in seasons long ago To those who are the loved-ones that I have yet to know To those whose noble names I bear, whose light within me burns To them in gratitude shall my heart be turned To those whose lives of courage prepared the way for me Whose works became my heritage, whose harvest I may reap Who left for me a legacy that I have yet to earn To them in gratitude shall my heart be turned To those who came before me in days and years long past To those who are the family that I shall know at last To those who seek the blessings of the truth that I have learned To them in gratitude shall my heart be turned.
