about

Brand new arrangement of "The Garden" with string trio

lyrics

I had a home, I had some land
I planted seeds to watch them grow
Life burst through, reached for the sun
Reached its roots down, way down below

I never knew, knew such joy
Coaxing from earth my legacy
Oh but the earth is just some land
Man has his might, and he likes to show

Remember me, we were the same
Rejoicing in life, our land was our art
We shared each ember of sun
Feeding our seeds and our grateful hearts

Until the day man with his boots
Trampled my soil, kicked up my seeds
His monstrous hands raked up my roots
Left in his wake shadows and weeds

Oh –
Your garden grows
Say what you know
Your garden grows
