Song for America Video (MV)

I hear a voice "Be still my children" - I hear it say, "Be still and know
That I'll calm the seas you're sailing when you're tossed - tossed to and fro
I'm holding back the winds around you - the ones that threaten as they blow
Let me keep your course steady - keep it steady as you go"

We seldom mixed in other places, we were a band that sang the blues
Sometimes we laugh at all our troubles, sometimes we stare down at our shoes
We see the past but we move forward knowing this one thought is true
That you're the mirror for my reflection and it seems I'm just like you

"When the storm has ceased its fury and the sail's back on the mast
Child you'll leave behind the tempest and the hurricane that passed
I'm the sun to pierce a skyline that too long was overcast
I'll point you to a north star heading on your journey home at last"

When the past has fixed our gaze, we might change it if we could
But since all roads somehow led here we're left to wonder if we should
For the paths have crossed on purpose almost like it was meant to be
For I'm the mirror for your reflection and it seems you're just like me

We came here from all directions to the place where we now stand
Once were wondering in the desert, seeing now a promised land
We all wore the scarlet letters and better circles cast us out
But as one now we keep sailing past the storm of fear and doubt

As we near our destination let us all be still and know
That we're on this ship together to tomorrows where we'll go
We're finding out now as we're stepping into our new lives as we must
That we're the mirror for God's reflection and it seems He's just like us
