Journey to the Beacon

Listen to the music: Maestro Sersea – The Immigrant Ballads, Vol. 1

Sing along with the lyrics:

[Verse 1] 

I came here searching for a brighter light 

Kept my head up to the American sky 

Worked my fingers down to bones 

Finding places where I can call mine 

Every dream takes some time to grow 

Gonna write my story line by line 

[Chorus] 

Oh, I didn’t break American laws 

Just tried to find my way and cause 

This land’s a beacon, oh so bright 

Grateful for each day and night 

[Verse 2] 

With a suitcase full of hope and dreams 

Crossed those miles, chased the golden beams 

Kept my heart steady and true 

Seeing the red, white, and blue 

In the land where freedom reigns 

Every day, I’m planting seeds 

[Chorus] 

Oh, I didn’t break American laws 

Just tried to find my way and cause 

This land’s a beacon, oh so bright 

Grateful for each day and night 

[Bridge] 

Carry the love that brought me here 

Through the struggles and the tears 

No regrets, just dreams in sight 

In this great, harmonious night 

[Chorus] 

Oh, I didn’t break American laws 

Just tried to find my way and cause 

This land’s a beacon, oh so bright 

Grateful for each day and night
