Straight Roads

I am touched by the hands of time; the old ones which came before me straightened my path. I am touched by the hands of time; I walk the path, plowed for me, straight roads only moving forward. I am touched by the hands of time; I stand tall, never weak, holding steadfast. I am touched by the hands of time; they call upon me; I follow their voice; carry on, carry om they say. I walk the path, plowed for me, straight roads only moving forward; never looking back, only remembering.

The form lends itself well to "Call and Response" ~ an aura of "Community" ~ not easily discounted.
