Song Review: By God We'll Have Our Home Again

By God We’ll Have Our Home Again

A war march, penned in June of 2020, has captured widespread notoriety, becoming a rallying song of the resistance.

Resistance to what? That varies from person to person.

Some see it as resistance to tyrannical government, worldwide Those governments are using public reaction to COVID-19, an overblown novel flu-like outbreak (with 99%+ survivor-ability), to impose unprecedented lockdowns and medical mandates, to the detriment of all but the elites. 

These new resisters see local economies destroyed by the lockdowns while elites reap every higher incomes and dominance.  

They are beginning to realize that the inoculations and authorized “treatment” are far deadlier than the alleged disease. They expect a “1346 Event” triggered the escalating avalanche of adverse reactions being reported to vaccine adverse reaction reporting systems around the world. They are not alone in this; a number of respected holistic physicians are predicting just that.

What is a “1346 Event”?  That’s the year the Black Death came to Eurasia.  Within two years between a third and half of the population was dead.  That is a real possibility, perhaps probability.  Such an event would fracture modern society and crash all trade and transport connections that make that society possible.  The looming tyranny is the predicate for the collapse

Some, though, resist, setting aside their fears, planning to be part of the remnant that is willing to expend everything for a chance…

“By God we’ll have our home back again” reflects the longings of a formerly free folk and the determination to retrieve their loss.

The refrain brackets a series of complaints about the current situation, with declarations of strong intent to resist.

Though it sounds like it could have been written several centuries ago, perhaps in Scotland or the Old South, it was written during the Year of the Declared Pandemic — in Middle America. 

This version has strong visuals and the website hosting it expresses some opinions with which I strongly disagree. 

I’m sharing song for itself alone, as a self-contained message, not for this particular version’s surroundings.

A wise friend once told me “The side with the best songs wins.”  One can only hope.

Lyrics

When there’s nothing left but the fire in my chest and the air that fills my lungs

I’ll hold my tears and trade my years for a glimpse at kingdom come

On the other side of misery there’s a world we long to see

The strife we share will take us there to relief and sovereignty

Oh by god we’ll have our home again, by god we’ll have our home

By blood or sweat we’ll get there yet

By god we’ll have a home

In our own towns we’re foreigners now, our names are spat and cursed

The headline smack of another attack, not the last and not the worst

Oh my fathers they look down on me, I wonder what they feel

To see their noble sons driven down beneath a cowards heel

Oh by god we’ll have our home again, by god we’ll have our home

By blood or sweat we’ll get there yet

By god we’ll have a home

The way is dark, the road is lost, my eyes they strain to see

I struggle forth to find a friend to light the way for me

Oh brothers can you hear my voice or am I all alone

If there’s no fire to guide my way, then I will start my own

Oh by god we’ll have our home again, by god we’ll have our home

By blood or sweat we’ll get there yet

By god we’ll have a home

Oh by god we’ll have our home again, by god we’ll have our home

By blood or sweat we’ll get there yet

By god we’ll have a home
