Ethio (Bridge of Love)

Verse 1

Tibebe comes from the mountain heights

Carrying embers to start the lights

The spirit speaks of a sacred ground

Where the lost children have finally been found

Pre-Chorus

Green like the forest on the hill

Yellow like sun that stands so still

Red like the heart that knows no pride

Running together side by side

Chorus

Bridge of love across the Great Rift

Lifting us high like a holy gift

Hand in hand we walk the line

Healing the soil through the pass of time

Oh Ethiopia

Our home is the star

Bringing us close from the very far

Verse 2

I met a sister by the Blue Nile stream

Painting the pieces of a common dream

She sang of Kings from a golden age

Turning the leaf on a dusty page

Pre-Chorus

Green like the forest on the hill

Yellow like sun that stands so still

Red like the heart that knows no pride

Running together side by side

Chorus

Bridge of love across the Great Rift

Lifting us high like a holy gift

Hand in hand we walk the line

Healing the soil through the pass of time

Oh Ethiopia

Our home is the star

Bringing us close from the very far

Bridge

Under the moon we reconcile

Learning to speak with a brotherhood smile

For the motherland

For the desert sand

For the peace we hold in our steady hand

Chorus

Bridge of love across the Great Rift

Lifting us high like a holy gift

Hand in hand we walk the line

Healing the soil through the pass of time

Oh Ethiopia

Our home is the star

Bringing us close from the very far
