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
A voice from down the ages
So
haunting in its song
These ancient stones will tell us
Our love must make
us strong
The breeze it wrapped around me
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
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
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
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
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 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
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 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
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
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
Reprise:
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
A voice from down the ages
So haunting in its song
These ancient stones will
tell us
Our love must make us strong
