Without a Trace

Around these Islands fabled shores
Like soldiers stand…
Sacred sentinels of old, they watch the land
They twist and bend with passing years
If they could tell to listening ears
All they know…
Youthful green to aging red
They look so grand.
With tender ‘care the wood is used
For knowingvhand
To carve an Eagle flying high or a Raven diving through the sky
No more this world they’ll roam
You saved their lives and homes
And You, You will never burn
You will never burn
You will never burn for us
When the world was ages young
This story’s told
The water covered all the land
And stole their homes
Your branches saved them from their end
Now are you called forever friend
No more this world they’ll roam
You saved their lives and homes
And You, You will never burn
You will never burn
You will never burn for us
We look to traditions in the past, to save our own
We unite when all is lost, or all undone
If we can’t hear the elders words
We may face a darker world
No more this world they’ll roam
You saved their lives and homes
And You, You will never burn
You will never burn
You will never burn for us
