Too many broken promises Too many trail of tears Too many times you were left cold For, oh so many yearsToo many times you walked away And was made to feel ashamed And though you only tried to give You were often blamedHow can this world be so dark So unfair and so untrue How did the cards of life Fold right on top of youGod in Heaven, hear my prayer If You are still above Send the children hopes and dreams And lots and lots of loveFor this I only ask of You To conquer all their fears And let them soar like eagles Across the trail of tears
