The Cry of This Land

Flowers are weeping with raindrops Mem'ries are shrouded with mist Now that the sword has been buried Sacred's the ground that I kiss Yonder the heather clad mountains Keep all their secrets so well The winds, they are calling me homeward The rivers are casting their spell My heart's beating stronger My soul's coming home I know this is where I belong The power, the glory, the cry of this land Now I yield to your myst'ries unknown Why was I needlessly seeking What was the dream I pursued Innocence has been forsaken I've rediscovered the truth My heart's beating stronger My soul's coming home I know this is where I belong The power, the glory, the cry of this land Now I yield to your myst'ries unknown The sounds of my childhood The lure of the past They've never deserted my mind The power, the glory, the cry of this land Now I yield to your myst'ries unknown River, take me home Too long have I roamed Gently, bear me nigh I'll abide till I die My heart's beating stronger My soul's coming home I know this is where I belong The power, the glory, the cry of this land Now I yield to your myst'ries unknown
