How
How can we find our way
To the path that seems so far away
Lost forever are the signs
To guide us to those of our kind
We walk in this strange land alone
Longing to go to the place our ancestors called home
We seek to find our past from long ago
To sit and remember the words
Of the great ones we no longer know
Oh Grandfather please hear me
Show me the way so I can follow thee
So long I've prayed for someone to come
To take the hand of this lost one
And when that day draws near
I know the spirit of my people
Will once again make the path's way clear
