The Seventh Fire
By Kim Moberg
They traveled ‘cross the land
West on Turtle Isle
They traveled ‘cross the land
Sparked by the first fire
Look for the sacred shell
As prophets did foretell
Stopping at the site where
Food on the water fell
Chorus:
And the fire still burns
Yes the fire still burns
(verses 2 and 3)
And the sun will rise and the winds will cry
And the sea will heal our tears
A shadow dark and long
Loomed across this blessed land
A shadow dark and long
Waived it’s venal hand
All that was known
Lay in ashes of betrayal
Pieces of their promises
Littered on the trail
Chorus
The seventh flame is nigh
Heed what has been lost
The seventh flame is nigh
Pay attention to the cost
Awaken the wisdom
As bitter rivers flow
Choose the path to unify
Return to what is known
Chorus
