Lyrics Our Dear, Dear Mother - Raffi

Our Dear, Dear Mother

Our dear, dear mother
Daily provider
Earth be your name
The time has come to honor you
To know you and to show our love
You give us each day our daily grain
Kissed by the sun and kissed by the rain
Teach us now to find a way
To care for you in our work and play
Our dear, dear mother
Daily provider
Earth be your name
The time has come to honour you
To know you and to show our love
Within the beauty of your silent spin
We know you’re hurting and we feel your pain
With your forgiveness we can start anew
We need a chance to make it up to you
How did we grow so blind and deaf to your call?
Out of touch out of mind, we wandered away
Now we’re lookin' to you to feel our way home, yes
And with hope in our hearts we’re comin' back home
Home to you
Our dear, dear mother
Daily provider
Earth be your name
The time has come to honor you
To know you and to show our love
The time has come to honor you
To know you and to show our love
