Our fathers bled at Valley Forge, the snow was red with blood
|
Their faith was worn at Valley Forge,
|
Their faith was brotherhood.
|
|
Wasn't that a time, wasn't that a time?
|
A time to try the soul of men,
|
Wasn't that a terrible time?
|
|
Brave men who fought at Gettysburg now lie in soldier's graves
|
But there they stemmed the rebel tide
|
And there their faith was saved
|
|
Wasn't that a time, wasn't that a time?
|
A time to try the soul of men,
|
wasn't that a terrible time?
|
|
The wars are long, the peace is frail, the madmen come again.
|
There is no freedom in a land where fear and hate prevail.
|
|
Isn't this a time, isn't this a time?
|
A time to try the soul of men,
|
Isn't this a terrible time?
|
|
Our fathers bled at Valley Forge, the snow was red with blood
|
Their faith was worn at Valley Forge,
|
Their faith was brotherhood.
|
|
Wasn't that a time, wasn't that a time?
|
A time to try the soul of men,
|
Wasn't that a terrible time?

WASN'T THAT A TIME
