Lyrics

When I was just a boy
I sailed across the ocean
When I landed in this city I had nothing at all
I worked for a tailor
Slept on his table
He gave me extra blankets when the summer turned to fall
Back where I came from
I swam across a river
With the soldiers not too far behind
And just one dream ahead
Prayers on my fingers
Hope in my heart
And the last words I ever heard my father say
Running through my head
Keep your head high
The trials come by fire
And they will try your faith
The harder it gets, the darker it seems
But the sun never sets on a dream
The sun never sets on a dream
Steam rose on the harbor
The dawn lit up a golden torch
That beckoned to the passengers
At the railings 20 deep
And God smiled on this nation
Of immigrants and refugees
Born of the idea that all are equal and free
Keep your head high
The trials come by fire
And they will try your faith
The harder it gets, the darker it seems
But the sun never sets on a dream
The sun never sets on a dream
The sun may set on hatred
It will set on you and me
the sun may set on injustice
May that be a day
Our children live to see
Keep your head high
The trials come by fire
And they will try your faith
The harder it gets, the darker it seems
But the sun never sets on a dream
The sun never sets on a dream
