chip dockery - delta dawn lyrics

[verse 1]
the roar of mighty engines splits the morning
on shafts of fire, the fighters climb away
the eastern skies ablaze with light of dawning
for men who fly and fight another day

[verse 2]
the sky above the coast is washed in sunlight
the sea is dark as day breaks on the land
the vast and flooded delta’s fertile grandeur
reminds us of how small the works of man

[verse 3]
from twenty+thousand feet, the land is peaceful
with the beauty god meant the world to be
the morning mist, the sparkling silver sunlight
on the mekong, flowing gently to the sea

[verse 4]
in the spell of this high, deep blue enchantment
and the beauty of this lovely, verdant land
how far away the pain, the tears, and heartbreak
man’s cruel inhumanity to man

[verse 5]
how long must we endure the bonds of hatred?
how long must we heed the call of mars?
how long before all men can live together?
how long to bind the wounds and heal the scars?
[verse 6]
the soldier prays for peace more than all others
for he must bear the deepest wounds of war
lord take our hand and lead us through the midnight
to the shining promise of your morning star
lord take our hand and lead us through the midnight
to the shining promise of your morning star
