Against my will to these sad shores
An unknown force has drawn me
Bound unto a future shaped by ancestors before me
Day on day I march the beat to someone else's drum
I have searched far foreign lands
There's nowhere left to run
Impending storm rise up rise up
Oh demons, I shall shame you
Look down the barrel of my gun
And one by one, I'll name you
Day on day my brothers leave
Go marching off to war
Yet we never understand for what we're fighting for
Ubi caritas et amor
Ubi caritas
Deus ibi est
Worldly desires and worldly gains
Designed for worldly men
I'm a master of the heart
With ears and hands to lend, oh
Soldiers come and soldiers go
Some changed by love for thee
A circle in the chain of life all fighting to be free
Ubi caritas et amor
Ubi caritas
Deus ibi est
So come my lord and we shall dance
To God's own private drum, oh
Sweet Jesus and the holy vine
The afterlife to come
Day on day I march the the beat
To someone else's drum
I have searched far foreign lands
There's nowhere left to run
Ubi caritas et amor
Ubi caritas
Deus ibi est
