REAR GUARD

Lyrics & Music by: Jacquelyn Fedor


Press play button to listen

We've been scattered through the nations:
Far from God and our precious homeland,
Lost and torn, from our people:
A remnant of the tribe once known as Dan.

CHORUS:

A shadow of what we used to be,
Hardly a trace is left to tell
Of the Tribe of Dan, the rear guard
That protected the House of Israel.




Feel the suffering, see the pain and tears
As we cry to the God our father's knew:
We repent of bowing down to other gods,
Oh Great Spirit, our hearts return to you.

CHORUS:

A shadow of what we used to be,
Hardly a trace is left to tell
Of the Tribe of Dan, the rear guard
That protected the House of Israel.




Michael, the Angel of the Lord will defend us
And we will rise again,
From the dust of the barren soil:
Washed in Truth, clothed in the Wind!
Washed in Truth, clothed in the Wind!
