Have You Ever Heard of Jesus*
Have you ever heard of Jesus?
He was making miracles and healing
The Christian believers faced
The Native People
Yes
We know him by all different names
We worship the son of the creator
He taught us ways of healing
He taught us the way of justice and love
Our elderly knew the ways of spiritual angels
We knew how to appreciate all that was given to us
Animals and rivers
We said thanks for every given day
We love Jesus
Until our land was transformed
Into an unknown and gone.
