Wasn´t That a Time - The Weavers

Our fathers bled at Valley Forge

The snow was red with blood

Their faith was worn at Valley Forge

Their faith was brotherhood

Wasn’t that a time?

Wasn’t that a time?

A time to try the soul of men

Wasn’t that a terrible time?

Brave men who fought at Gettysburg

Now lie in soldier’s graves

But there they stemmed the rebel tide

And there their faith was saved

Wasn’t that a time?

Wasn’t that a time?

A time to try the soul of men

Wasn’t that a terrible time?

The wars are long, the peace is frail

The madmen come again

There is no freedom in a land

Where fear and hate prevail

Isn’t this a time?

Isn’t this a time?

A time to try the soul of men

Isn’t this a terrible time?

Our fathers bled at Valley Forge

The snow was red with blood

Their faith was worn at Valley Forge

Their faith was brotherhood

Wasn’t that a time?

Wasn’t that a time?

A time to try the soul of men

Wasn’t that a terrible time?
