Here in the High and Low

The sound of the drum, the pulse of your feet The side of the mountain, the sand of the sea All of the earth that gave you your strength Formed you and bruised you and brought you to me Here in my high and low All that came before has to go Here in my high and low All that came before has to go Guard what's gentle, not castles or kings Their future ruins your planted seeds Cover the earth with flowers and leaves Children to wonder and hunger to feed Here in my high and low All that came before has to go Here in my high and low All that came before has to go We're building our ship, we're making our plan On rising water and sinking sand So join in the song and join in the band My only one, you don't have to be A hero Here in my high and low Hero Here in my high and low
