Lyrics

[male

vocals] (

Acoustic

guitar

gentle

strumming

with

a

soft

pedal

steel

swell)

The

sun

comes

up

across

the

fields

of

green

Reflecting

all

the

memories

of

a

life

unseen

I

walk

the

path

you

cleared

through

thorns

and

clay

Working

till

your

hands

were

worn

and

grey

You

didn't

do

it

for

the

fame

or

for

the

gold

You

kept

the

fire

burning

through

the

biting

cold

A

silent

strength

that

held

the

rafters

high

Underneath

the

vast

and

open

country

sky

Oh,

Wilson

Mwansa

Barrior,

the

name

I

proudly

wear

It’

s

written

in

the

wind

and

in

the

midnight

prayer

You

suffered

for

my

morning,

you

labored

for

my

light

You

were

the

guiding

star

that

pulled

me

through

the

night

I’

m

the

living

proof

of

everything

you

gave

And

I’

ll

honor

every

promise,

every

inch

you

paved

Yeah,

I’

m

proud

to

carry

on

the

name

you

gave

You

never

looked

for

glory,

just

a

simple

way

to

stand

A

legacy

of

love

that

stretched

across

this

land

I

see

you

in

the

mirror

when

I

look

into

my

eyes

A

testament

to

truth

that

never

really

dies

You

got

so

tired,

Daddy,

but

you

never

hit

the

ground

You

searched

for

better

days

until

the

peace

was

found

It’

s

a

heavy

cross

to

carry,

but

it’

s

light

because

it’

s

you

A

heart

of

gold

that

beat

for

us,

steady

and

so

true

Oh,

Wilson

Mwansa

Barrior,

the

name

I

proudly

wear

It’

s

written

in

the

wind

and

in

the

midnight

prayer

You

suffered

for

my

morning,

you

labored

for

my

light

You

were

the

guiding

star

that

pulled

me

through

the

night

I’

m

the

living

proof

of

everything

you

gave

And

I’

ll

honor

every

promise,

every

inch

you

paved

Yeah,

I’

m

proud

to

carry

on

the

name

you

gave

And

though

you’

re

gone,

the

harvest

that

you

planted

still

will

grow

In

the

kindness

that

I’

m

trying

every

single

day

to

show

I’

ll

tell

the

world

the

story

of

a

hero

made

of

steel

A

love

that’

s

soft

and

gentle

but

that

cuts

the

hardest

real

Oh,

Wilson

Mwansa

Barrior,

the

name

I

proudly

wear

It’

s

written

in

the

wind

and

in

the

midnight

prayer

You

suffered

for

my

morning,

you

labored

for

my

light

You

were

the

guiding

star

that

pulled

me

through

the

night

I’

Yeah,

I’

m

proud

to

carry

on

the

name

you

gave

I’

m

proud

to

carry

on…

Wilson

Mwansa

Barrior,

rest

now,

you’

re

home. (

Fiddle

fades

into

a

gentle

guitar

finish)
