Sister Serenity
Sister Serenity
(Maiorano)
From a war zone, to war at home
Free to roam, the wood
The very land our forefathers stole
Marred with, righteous blood
(Chorus) Sister Serenity, lead me to your sanctuary
Mother of pity, take me to your city
The peaceful dell, a citadel
Her daily gift of wildflowers
An angel from the heavens fell
Healing shame in darkest of hour
(Chorus)
(Bridge) Runaway, hideaway, cast away – your pride
Their way, your way, my way – has died
That place, this place, no place – feels right
Hide my face, in disgrace, see her face – shine bright
Night turns to day, time and tide
Slowly reborn, with hopeful eyes
Fog of war fades, absent pride
Out of exile, the past euthanized
(Chorus) (add) Sister Serenity, love is the remedy
Sharing this country, freedom’s posterity
