Loreena Mckennitt-An Ancient Muse

These ancient stones will tell us

Our love must make us strong

The breeze it wrapped around me

As I stood there on the shore

And listened to this voice

Like I never heard before

Our battles they may find us

No choice may ours to be

But hold the banner proudly

The truth will set us free

My mind was called across the years

Of rages and of strife

Of all the human misery

And all the waste of life

We wondered where our God was

In the face of so much pain

I looked up to the stars above

To find you once again

We travelled the wide oceans

Heard many call your name

With sword and gun and hatred

It all seemed much the same

Some used your name for glory

Some used it for their gain

Yet when liberty lay wanting
