Tekst piosenki
God of my fathers
Huddled in the harbor
Every man an ocean from his home
Their captors could not keep them
When they heard the drums of freedom
The dream of a kingdom
In a land they’ve never known
And God of my fathers
Strangers in this country
Pilgrims on these dusty roads
Across the great plains
In the bellies of the steel trains
To stake a new claim
In that wilderness of hope
Like my fathers I am looking for a home
Looking for a home beyond the sea
So be my God and guide me
Till I lie beneath the hills
Then let the great God of my fathers
Be the great God of my children still
God of my grandfathers
Gone these many years now
I guess they’re shining like the sun
And I envision them
Grinning at the finish
And they smile and they smile
'Cause they love to see me run
Now we’re counting stars and counting sand
Little feet and little hands
We’re counting joys
We pray you’ll know them
As you knew us when you wove us
As you hold us
Hold them, please hold them
Like their father, they are looking for a home
Looking for a home beyond the sea
So be their God and guide them
Till they lie beneath these hills
And let the great God of their father
Be the great God of their children
Let the great God of my fathers
Be the great God of my children still
Tłumaczenie tekstu piosenki
God of my fathers
/ Align = "left" /
Każdy człowiek ocean z jego domu
Porywacze nie mogli ich zatrzymać.
Kiedy usłyszeli Bębny wolności
The dream of a kingdom
In a land they ' ve never known
And God of my fathers
Strangers in this country
Pielgrzymi na tych zakurzonych drogach
Przez wielkie równiny
In the bellies of the steel trains
/ Align = "left" /
In that wilderness of hope
Jak moi ojcowie, Szukam domu.
Looking for a home beyond the sea
Więc bądź moim Bogiem i prowadź mnie
Till I lie beneath the hills
Więc niech wielki Bóg moich ojców
Bądź wielkim Bogiem moich dzieci.
God of my grandfathers

I guess they ' re shining like the sun
I wyobrażam je sobie
/ Align = "left" /
And they smile and they smile
'Cause they love to see me run
Teraz liczymy gwiazdy i liczymy piasek
Małe stopy i małe dłonie
Liczymy radości
Modlimy się, żebyś ich poznał.
As you knew us when you wove us
As you hold us

Tak jak ich ojciec, szukają domu.
Looking for a home beyond the sea
Więc bądź ich Bogiem i prowadź ich
Dopóki nie spoczywają pod tymi wzgórzami
I niech wielki Bóg ich ojca
Bądź wielkim Bogiem ich dzieci
Niech wielki Bóg moich ojców
Bądź wielkim Bogiem moich dzieci.
