Sister Brother (30th Anniversary Edition)

Sister
Why are you sad?
Why have you cried?
Sister
Though you've been treated bad
You've still got your pride
There's so much that you can give
And you can, It's not too late
You have just begun to live
And good things come to those
Who do not wait

So don't listen to the heartbreakers
Find comfort in your staff and rod
Blessed are the peacemakers
For they shall see God

Brother
Oh, you've been doing time, for some little thing
Brother
It's not so much the crime but the color of your skin
And don't let them harden your heart
They just want to see you fall
But you can make a brand-new start
Because you can rise above
Above it all

So don't listen to the heartbreakers
Find comfort in your staff and rod
Blessed are the peacemakers
For they shall see God

Father
Tell me why do you drink your life away
Father
Please tell me what you think
There's so much you can say
Oh, there's so much that you can share
You've kept it in for far too long
Oh, I don't believe that you don't care
I've always believed that you
Are being strong

So don't listen to the heartbreakers
Find comfort in your staff and rod
Blessed are the peacemakers
For they shall see God

Oh, mother
You've seen so much strives and misery
My mother
The giver of life
You will always be
'Cause you are the one that makes things right
All your work you do it for free
And I know you have to fight
Just so you can keep
Your family

So don't listen to the heartbreakers
Find comfort in your staff and rod
Blessed are the peacemakers
For they shall see God
No, don't listen to the heart bakers
Find comfort in your staff and rod
Blessed are the peacemakers
For they shall see God
We sing blessed are the peacemakers
For they shall see God
