Poem Given to MPs/Senators
This is a poem that Faytene received while on the Hill for the second Siege. We put it on a paper bookmark and gave it out to all the MPs/Senators that came to the reception on the 27th.
The dreams of days once past
Echo through these halls
Reaching for a time that's yet to be
And today off these same walls
Is heard a voice that calls
Yearning for this ancient Destiny
O Canada the strong
O Canada the free
Do you know the One who called you forth to be?
O Canada the strong
O Canada the free
Do you know the One who longs to meet with thee?
In days now lived and gone
Was sung an ancient song
Whose melody came from Spirit deep
It's tune from lips of men
Whose eyes beheld heaven
Sang "Dominion be from sea to blessed sea."
O Canada the strong
A day now comes to dawn
This generation looks at what's come
And looks for ones of faith
Who will STAND and build today
Again with eyes uplifted t'ward the Son
So Canada arise, today we call your name
Given by the one who formed your frame
Canada break free to what your called to be
A nation who will worship at His feet
