Martyn Joseph The Light of Guatemala Lyrics Martyn Joseph lyrics

The El Fuego volcano spits a little each day
Best to let off a little steam than keep it in they say
Sunset in the Mayan highlands is a transfixing place to be
The light of Guatemala's grace filled jubilee

Where the signs point to tomorrow
But the love is in the day
The light of Guatemala
Pours hope into the day

There is nothing to admire here says Tita, a Mother of three
But the warm wind through the cornfield begs to gently disagree
What would it take to break her beautiful soul?
And where do you begin the bewildering journey back home?

Where the signs point to tomorrow
But the love is in the day
The light of Guatemala

Pours hope into the day

The world is in transit but the world keeps turning as well
Folk crammed in the back of a truck each a story to tell
Someday the darkness will lift the sweet promise of morning shall be
The light of Guatemala's grace filled jubilee

Where the signs point to tomorrow
But the love is in the day
The light of Guatemala
Pours hope into the day

Somos we are we Somos
Somos we are we are
