I see a boy, so strong and so proud
Fightin’ for the cause, standin’ out from the crowd
His sword is his anger, his shield is his heart
Fire in that belly as he plays out his part
And I see a girl with a beat in her step
A heart full of hope where her secrets are kept
Her eyes see the world, for all it can be
A smile on her face, her spirit runs free
Sing me a song of love and of glory
Memories and hope unwinding our stories
Dreams were forsaken but our hearts never broken
Sing me a song of love …
And glory …
Of love and glory …
Now I see a man who is old and is grey
Fought for the cause, way back in his day
The flames in his heart, burned out to embers
The fire in his belly, he hardly remembers
And I see a woman so old and so wise
The lines on her face, they tell me no lies
She carried her love and the lives of her young
Her story’s almost over and almost unsung
Sing me a song of love and of glory
Memories and hope unwinding our stories
Dreams were forsaken but our hearts never broken
Sing me a song of love …
Please, sing me a song of love and of glory
Memories and hope unwinding our stories
Dreams were forsaken but our hearts never broken
Sing me a song of love …
And glory …
Of love and glory …
Glory …
Love and glory …
