In a strange land with a strange people
who worship a god different
Convenient, finite, yet way far away
seasons are not the same
There is more rain, or more dry earth
there is no rich soil
They eat differently, speak a language
not understood, yet
Exile leads us to discover
what is important
What is key, that we are related
in a human family
Bigger than we imagined
yet we are not understood
Because we are small
distant, from a world away
Exiled to learn all this
and more of our strength
