To honour the fallen
To honour again
To light up the beacons
To start again
In all of our Mountains
and in all of our valleys
Cherish, this God-given strength, that's bestowed (deep within)
To pick up the pieces
Where so much was lost
The collective consciousness unfolds
No matter the cost
There never was a time in this world
With so much at stake
Cherish, this honour-bound fate, in our hands
There comes a time in our lives
When we must leave behind
The child that each of us knew
And become what we are
We each must take up our sword
and with it our shield
Cherish, this great sacrifice, for our lands
Excellent medieval folk, IGR, & those with ears to hear. I love the sense of mysticism and deep, introspective ponder this album conveys, & the honest down-to-earth folky lyrics. Simply wonderful yet soulfully rich. Highlights for me are tracks 2, 5, 6, & 12. IGR truly capture what I feel is an authentic sense of a medieval bard at a woodland rill pondering the mysteries of life. Highly recommended. 8.5+/10. Alrihkh
