lyrics

O CEDAR TREE
Adapted Lyrics by Vera Starbard

O Cedar Tree, O Cedar Tree
How fragrant are your branches
O Cedar Tree, O Cedar Tree
How fragrant are your branches
You gave us so much through decades
Canoes, our homes, baskets we made
O Cedar Tree, O Cedar Tree
How fragrant are your branches

O Hemlock Tree, O Hemlock tree
We see you all around us
O Hemlock Tree, O Hemlock tree
We see you all around us
At Christmas time we bring you in
For herring eggs you are our friend
O Hemlock Tree, O Hemlock tree
We see you all around us

O Sitka Spruce, O Sitka Spruce
Your beauty soars above us
O Sitka Spruce, O Sitka Spruce
Your beauty soars above us
So special are your roots and bark
Gunalchéesh for your gifts we remark
O Sitka Spruce, O Sitka Spruce
Your beauty soars above us
