Beneath+the+Sky

The moonlight it was dancing On the waves, out on the sea The stars of heaven hovered In a shimmering galaxy

A voice from down the ages So in haunting in its song 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 And of all the human misery And all the waste of life

We wondered where our gods were In the face of so much pain And 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 No lives were lost in vain

Is it not our place to wonder As the sky does weep with tears And all the living creatures Look on with mortal fear

It is ours to hold the banner It is ours to hold it long It is ours to carry forward Our love must make us strong

And as the warm wind carried Its song into the night I closed my eyes and tarried Until the morning light

As the last star it shimmered And the new sun's day gave birth It was in this magic moment Came this prayer for mother earth //Reprise://

The moonlight it was dancing On the waves, out on the sea The stars of heaven hovered In a shimmering galaxy

And a voice from down the ages So in haunting in its song The ancient stones will tell us Our love will make us strong
