Testo di Jeannette Sears, moglie di Pete Sears, e con lui membro dei Jefferson Starship.
La canzone, e il video, furono registrati per sensibilizzare sulla situazione dei nativi Maya in GUatemala, dove i coniugi Sears erano stati spesso, sin dal 1978, e dove il fratello e la madre di Jeannette Sears vivevano.
Lord make a wait for dead
to live as for centuries they've done
bravely ... from the shadow of death
let them live once again in the sun

With the blood men flows down the mountain side
let flowers grow again near
let no their labours be in vain
and may the crops grow well
near brothers ...

Ear the voice of Guatemala
may ... under the hand of Tiranny
where the disappeared, I'll never see again
and the fire and the mountains fight for them

Oh Lord let peace rain again
over the deep crystal water of Atitlan
shine with the sons of the twin Volcanoes
shine down on the mountains of ...

Ear the voice of Guatemala
may ... under the hand of Tiranny
where the disappeared, I'll never see again
and the fire and the mountains fight for them
