FROM MY HOME

D. Johnson / D. Wells


From my home, I see a pure and blazing sun

Now it’s on the run

From my home, I see the flame of a distant land

Passing hand to hand to hand


Home – the north and eastern shore

Home – the lights on Great Bras d’Or

Home – the blue Superior shines

All the places I see from my home


From my home, I hear the voices ringing out

As they gather round

De chez moi, j’entends une belle chanson

De paix pour tout le monde


Home – the plains and great divide

Home – aurora in the sky

Home – spirit of Haida Gwaii

All the places I see from my home


This is our winter world, across the ice and snow

Sea to sea to sea, everywhere the fire goes

It’s burning stronger now, telling all the world

This is who we are, and this is our home


Home – the north and eastern shore

Home – the lights on Great Bras d’Or

Home – the blue Superior shines

All the places I see from my home


Home – the plains and great divide

Home – aurora in the sky

Home – spirit of Haida Gwaii

All the places I see from my home


From my home, I see the children of the world

Laugh and sing

From my home
