Keepers of the Earth

album: Endless Sky (1993), track 10 of 12
author: Chuck Pyle
publisher: Bee 'n' Flower Music BMI

From a hundred miles high 
You see there's no borderlines 
Only earth, water, wind and sky 
Left to the care of all mankind 
The planet shakes 
The planet weeps 
Like a mother for her child 
Her voice grows louder 
Every moment, every hour 
It's a brand new call of the wild
   We are the keepers of the earth
   We are the guardians of the land
   Our sweet Mother Earth
   She is in our hands
   We are the keepers of the earth
All our tallest trees are falling 
From the Amazon to the Hudson Bay 
All our grandchildren are calling 
And every heart knows what they say
The planet shakes 
The planet weeps 
Like a mother for her child 
Her voice grows louder 
Every moment every hour 
It's a brand new call of the wild
   We are the keepers of the earth 
   We are the guardians of the land 
   Our sweet Mother Earth 
   She is in our hands 
   We are the keepers of the earth
   We are the keepers of the earth
   Keepers of the earth
