verse 1
Comes a time in our life
When the voice in our soul
Speaks to us….
Midst the stress and the strife
As we travel this road
Filled with dust
Where do we go
How do we know
Who to trust
verse 2
When we’re children we’re told
That the lessons of old
Guide us through
But the time soon arrives
When events in our lives
Are brand new
Where do we go
How do we know
What to do
bridge 1
The questions in our mind – surround us
The answers that we find – won’t do
Traditions of the past – around us
Maybe before – but now we need more
verse 3
As we look back to see
What His message would be
For that time….
Many chose to reject
Words He gave to protect
Humankind
Now we must see
World Unity
Don’t be blind
bridge 2
The questions in our mind – surround us
The answers that we find – won’t do
Traditions of the past – around us
That (once) was the way – but now’s a new day
verse 4
And we move to the new
Through the Valley of Search
From the old
‘Cause we know it’s His will
That our journey is led
By the soul
Open your heart
Make a new start
Reach your goal

Our tribute song commemorating an historic event that took place in May, 1803 on Saint Simons Island, Georgia.
