New Land – Eden’s Bridge – letras

On a hillside in the warm sunGranite shining like iceAnd the water sparkling, rushingThrough the earth black as nightWhere the skylark sings above meAnd the sheep graze at easeIn the silence, this new landSummons each, all, and meI had not seen, I could not knowWhat this new land would beI had heard a piece of HeavenWas waiting for meFrom the barren to the verdantFrom the crag to the daleOnce I’ve stepped out in faithThen there’s no turning awayI’ll fly, fly, headlong and freeFly, fly, headlong and freeWhy grieve for the pains that have been?For the new land is calling to meFor the new land is calling to meEvery autumn has its winterEvery winter its springAges pass and every dyingMeans a new life beginsIn the passing from the old landThere is sorrow and fearBut the night at its darkestMeans the dawning is near
