When Comes A Time

In the eyes of a child
The reflection of a mother's care
Father so silent
Yet so heartfully there
A country's border
There to keep out the danger
There to cast out the strangers
That storm the gates of heaven
When there comes a time
A babe needs your hand
Open your arms and then
Give them your land
When they've come to conquer
Your fortress so lame
Infants will scream louder
'Til the bedside she came
A light shines from her window
Silhouette dance of impassioned grace
We all seek the comfort
In the bosom of her border
Like war-weary men
Their desire like the battlefield
Are drawn into her light
The salve to soothe their pain
When there comes a time
A babe needs your hand
Open your arms and then
Give them your land
When they've come to conquer
Your fortress so lame
Infants will scream louder
'Til the bedside she came
