Lyrics

[Musical arrangement: ted kirkpatrick all instruments played by ted kirkpatrick]

Between the years of 1861-1865
Over 620,000 americans died from gunshot
Disease or sickness
In the bloodiest battles of our nations history -
The civil war

Through the instrument of prejudice
Fear and hate
A different battle rages on to this day

But in christ, we are all one people -
United in our commitment to god and each other -
Because it is he who first loved us..
