My Brother's Keeper
John Holt · Other Songs - John Holt
May these scars remind us?
My Brother's,
Trouble seeks and trouble finds
Together, together we are strong
My Brother's keeper whether right or wrong
Across the sea you ride with me, with me
We face these trials together
I shall always be – My brother's keeper
My Brother's,
We are in intertwined
And though we walk down different paths these ties shall bind us
My Brother's,
Ready to defend
My Brother's until the end
Across the earth across the sea you ride with me, (you ride with me)
We face our trials together
I shall always be –
And times I lost my way, you where there to guide me
You stood behind me,
I shall always be – My Brother's Keeper
I shall always be – My Brother's Keeper
My Brother's Keeper
