I Will Tread Lightly
Lyrics by Dina Soraya Gregory/ Music by Alisa Bair
I lay no claim upon this land
For it stood here before I came,
And I will only know a fraction of the beauty it enfolds.
I lay no claim upon this land
For it was never mine to own,
When I was born into the majesty of all the life it holds.
These hands have never toiled to feed this ancient fertile ground,
To sew the seeds of fortune in its clay.
But the sky has shed her tears of life, the sun has spread her warmth,
The heavens keep their vigil night and day.
So I will tread lightly,
I will tread lightly,
I will tread lightly.
That I may leave a garden fi t to grow.
I lay no claim upon this land
For it’s a world we can’t replace,
And though it’s far away I hope one day
My footprint leaves no trace.
So I will tread lightly,
I will tread lightly,
I will tread lightly.
And I will learn to tiptoe as I go,
That I may leave a garden fi t to grow.
I will tread lightly (lightly)
I will tread lightly (lightly)
I will tread lightly (lightly)
Lightly, lightly…
