Lyrics:

Chorus:
I ain’t a settler!
You could see the dust on their faces
Wearied by the heavy sigh of a life left behind
Egypt hated them, Moab scorned them
No one knew what to do
The pillar of fire was before them
But all they want is a little less heat.
Like the Israelites before us we complain about where God is taking us
Because the pain from walking requires so much of us
If we could go back to our old ways
Maybe just maybe
We won’t need to be saved
Chorus:
I ain’t a settler!
Even after the parting of the Red Sea
The thunderous rolls from the mountains
The miracle of manna from heaven
No one cared, and no one thought
That the unbelief in their hearts
Made them ripe for judgment
From Yahweh the God of them all.
So, they never saw the promised land and wandered the desert
until every last one of them was in the ground
As their children walked on the soil they banked on
Their children followed their God homeward bound
Chorus:
I ain’t a settler!
