Rosaries at the Border Songtext
von Jess Williamson

Be Thou my vision
Be my vision
Be Thou my wisdom
Be my wisdom

Lord, somethin′s missin'
Somethin′ we are missin'
They come runnin'
Hideous horror
Down at the border

Mama and baby
Mama, she is weeping
But we are a God fearing
God fearing country
So, they come runnin′


They told her life was better on the other side
You′ll give your babies a better chance
Than you had in your whole life
For the fate of her family
And as she prayed to Jesus Christ

She came runnin'
She came runnin′
She came runnin'

Oh, to wash her feet with my perfumed hair
To touch the hem of what they′re making her wear
And say forgive my nation
Though they know what they do
I swear somewhere down the line
We served the same God as you

And we came runnin' too
And we came runnin′ too
And we came runnin' too
And we came runnin' too

Be Thou our vision
Be our vision
Be Thou our wisdom
Be our wisdom
