One Land
Words & Music: Joshua Vandercar

Station to station, oh, the news is feeding us our daily fear.
And in the papers, in the streets, they say, "The end is near."
But what do words mean, when images come clear?
Oh, may we let the blood, the pain, & the tears draw near. Draw near ...

Nation to nation, do we know our feet stand on one land?
And heart to heart, oh, when will we start to love our fellow man?

The mourning echoes on, heard from day to day & year to year.
But do we know our brother's need & do we cry our sister's tears?
When love & hate collide, oh, may we take a look in the mirror.
Then let Truth lead us on, from here to there, & there to here. Ohhhh.

In back alleys & backs of cars
In city streets & village bars
On planes & trains & banka boats
In forests, fields, & mountain roads
Oh, everywhere that money's spent
And where they can't pay rent
In orphan homes & prison cells
'Fore altars & round empty wells
In restaurants & hospitals
With starving little boys & girls
Oh, every place you've never been
And right here, now, with a friend

When love & hate collide, oh, may we take a look past the mirror.
Reflected images of blood, pain, & tears become clear.
And lead us from here to there, & there to here.
