Our wagons are circled for the night
Within their confounds
We stand
With joined hands
In prayer
Asking for protection
For our precious land and
On all who call it their home

While we're huddled together
United in prayer
It doesn't matter anymore
The color of our eyes or skin or hair
There is a kindred love
We share

We have a common enemy
We have common goals
We have common dreams
Together let us build
One terrific team

Together let us strive
To bring peace
Upon this earth
Let that peace begin
Within the confines
Of our heart
