Martin Guerre soundtrack – Pray For The Day lyrics

Bertrande
Benoit, you must be brave now
Benoit, don't be afraid
One day, there will be peace
Benoit
But Bertrande, how can you know?
Bertrande
Just look around and learn from what you see...
Each tiny seed we sow in the earth
Each tiny seed will grow when there is sunlight
Each tree you see has grown from a seed
And has waited for the springtime
For a time when it's safe to grow
We need the summer sun
Benoit
We wait but the winter's cold
Bertrande
We know that the day will come
When we'll see all its leaves unfold
We can pray for the day
When it's our turn to try
Benoit
Can we reach like the trees
Bertrande
(she raises her arms to the sky)
Touch the stars in the sky!
Then we'll see...
All that we've done
Benoit
is it our turn to try?
Bertrande
All we've begun
Benoit
Touch the stars in the sky
Bertrande
Pray for the day
The seeds that we've sown
All we've known will survive
Like the trees we are strong
Benoit
Like the trees we'll belong
Bertrande
We can pray for our day to arrive....
