lirik lagu nancy hanson - bring them in
go bring them in
don stirling/nancy hanson/sam cardon
november 1856
just west of devil’s gate
a place they now call martin’s cove
sacred ground of faith
some hours ago we somehow crossed
sweetw-ter’s sheets of ice
at times it took your breath away
at times it took your life
the sky is growing dark again
there’s little food to eat
the chilling wind cut to the bone
i cannot feel my feet
i know that zion lay just ahead
as i rest and close my eyes
will i wake to see the morn
or maybe paradise?
chorus
go bring them in from the plains
go bring them in from the storm
like a fire the spirit’s burning
bring them in and keep them warm
go bring them in from the plains
go bring them in from the cold
wrap your loving arms around them
bring his peace to their souls
now tonight i dream of kirtland
zion’s camp’s holy test
i dream of independence
liberty and far west
tonight i dream of nauvoo
brother joseph’s iron will
tonight i dream of carthage
and how we miss him still
and tonight i dream of bethlehem
nazareth and galilee
tonight i dream of miracles
from our master and our king
somewhere it starts as whispers
then turns to shouts so clear
wake up, wake up, it’s not a dream
the valley boys are here!
chorus
now it’s me who walks these steps
just west of devil’s gate
a place we now call martin’s cove
sacred ground of faith
in silence and in reverence
sweetw-ter we now cross
and hear the echo of their prayers
their tears and their loss
the night still needs a light that shines
his truth we need to share
to honor those who came this way
we’ll lift up and we’ll care
on our backs and in our hearts
we’ll carry and proclaim
and heed a prophet’s call once more
go bring them in from the plains!
chorus
