Lyrics

Gentle Land
(Revised 1/5/2007 4:15 PM, Lyrics by Lori J. Werch, Music & Vocals by Holly Collison)

Verse
Amidst the chaos & prejudice
There lies a gentle land
One with dancing wheat
And skies that never land

Verse
Amidst the wars at bay
There lies a kindred land
One where human kind is shaped
And loyalty does stand

Chorus
Take my hand and walk with me
Across our gentle land
Take my hand and walk with me
Across our gentle land

Verse
Take my hand
Unearth this land
With seeds that we will sow
Take my hand across this land
Above our love will grow

Verse
You set free the dream in me
As Geese float ?cross the sky
Let nothing keep apart
The passions that now tie

Chorus
Take my hand and walk with me
Across our gentle land
Take my hand and walk with me
Across our gentle land

Verse
You have seen the northern lights
Shimmering ?cross the sky
Effervescent is the color
Reflects within your eye

Verse
And you have witnessed beginnings here
As dew transcends to mist
No longer shall we want
Nothings left to miss

Bridge
Awake with me each dawn
It?s where you now belong
Awake with me each dawn
It?s where you now belong

Chorus
Take my hand and walk with me
Across our gentle land
Take my hand and walk with me
Across our gentle land
