Kells - Iona

I stand on ground I’ve walked before

To seek the way

And see the night become the dawn

To show the path the goose has flown

A time will come and truth reveal

The glory of eternal God

Jesus the son, the living word

When beauty’s colours fade away

And earthly pages find decay

The word divine, always the same

His word shall live forever

His word shall live forever

The word is a sword that pierces the heart

The truth is a light that cuts through the dark

Of this world

Nations shall rise, nations shall fall

Nothing shall stand

In the way of the word

The word is a sword that pierces the heart

The truth is a light that cuts through the dark

Of this world

Nations shall rise, nations shall fall

Nothing shall stand

In the way of the word
