Standard (EADGBE)

I rode to my homeland

 and carried the memory over the valley below

 and the heart of a nation

the war cry was blazing

 and the loss of my brothers and sons

 were all in the name of civilisation

the empty moon saw I was leaving

with pride and hope in my heart

the mountains talk of faraway dreaming

so came the invasion

 across from a faraway place into the new world

 with guns and new order

they gave us religion

 then took away all of our rights and forced

 us to live behind their new border

the four winds blow and bring a new vision

where children laugh without fear

the land will speak and people will listen

but yesterday my life was fading

with every reason to die

ten miles to the north

 as I rode my red horse in the dying sun

 and then when I saw the white soldiers

one hundred or more in a line

kill for the land

saying their law will stand

what kind of God do they see?

What kind of god can this be?
