Song for Standing Rock

They stood like a rock
In the fierce face of evil
By the riverside
Oh my my
Mighty guns have been shot
Trying to bring down the eagle
By the riverside
Oh my my
Protectors of life
Of the land and the waters
By the riverside
Oh my my
From their depth heard the cry
Of their mothers and fathers
By the riverside
Oh my my
All my life I've searched that rainbow
Searched that clear voice in my mind
Like those waters flowing through me
Singing life stay alive
Stay alive stay alive stay alive
They chased hell away
With the might of the eagle
By the riverside
Oh my my
And paved a new path of hope for the people
By the riverside
Oh my my
Give me wisdom
Give me power
To stand firmly for my child
Like a mother shields her baby
Singing life stay alive stay
Alive stay alive I'm alive
Many meadows have gone
And more rivers turn to waste
And our liberty is hanging on that thin thread of fate
In the light that can shine through the hearts of the people
If we shall decide
Oh my my
There is life there I strength in the hearts
Of the people standing side by side oh my my
Yes I still believe in the hearts of the
People by the riverside oh my my
