Hearts Of Olden Glory Lyrics
There's thunder clouds
Round the hometown bay
As I walk out
In the rain
Through the sepia showers
And the photoflood days
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Of life
And though the water's
Black as night
The colours of Scotland
Leave you young inside
There must be a place
Under the sun
Where hearts of olden glory
Grow young
There's a vision
Coming soon
Through the faith
That cleans your wound
Hearts of olden glory
Will be renewed
Down the glens
Where the headlands stand
I feel a healing
Through this land
A cross for a people
Like wind through your hands
There must be a place
Under the sun
Where hearts of olden glory
Grow young
Round the hometown bay
As I walk out
In the rain
Through the sepia showers
And the photoflood days
Of life
And though the water's
Black as night
The colours of Scotland
Leave you young inside
Under the sun
Where hearts of olden glory
Grow young
Coming soon
Through the faith
That cleans your wound
Hearts of olden glory
Will be renewed
Where the headlands stand
I feel a healing
Through this land
A cross for a people
Like wind through your hands
Under the sun
Where hearts of olden glory
Grow young

let me be the first to comment onthis - having seen it performed live, oh yes...
classic inspiring stuff, just perfect to sing along to - awesome, and its simple music behind it, its all about the singing and the lyrics.
Minor correction, the lyrics are "Down the lens where the headland stands." It took me ages to figure out, he's looking at old photos. "Through the sepia showers ad the photoflood days..." I only realised that last month! I love this too, it is really breathtakingly beautiful. Really takes you there.
