No Road is Walked Alone

เนื้อเพลง

**[Intro — Distant Wind, Low Whistle, Soft Female Invocation]** Before our names were ever spoken Before our feet had touched this ground There were hearts that beat before us There was love without a sound **[Ancient Wordless Chant — Softly Building]** Ahh—ehh—ohh Ahh—ehh—ohh **[Verse 1]** Through the valleys, through the mountains Through the centuries of rain There were mothers, there were fathers Who endured both joy and pain There were hands that built our futures There were prayers beneath the stars There were souls who walked through darkness So that we could walk this far Every scar became a story Every story left a flame And though time has taken their voices Love remembers every name **[Pre-Chorus — Drums Begin]** Can you hear them in the silence? Can you feel them in the air? Not a single road before us Was ever walked without a prayer **[Chorus — Powerful, Driving Celtic Drums]** We are never walking alone Through the fire, through the unknown By the blood and by the blessing By the seeds our elders sowed God above and Mary near us May their love and mercy show That wherever life may lead us No road is walked alone Oh, no road is walked alone! **[Verse 2]** For the boy whose mind holds wonders May the stars reveal their ways May his courage carry wisdom Through the trials of his days For the girl whose heart feels deeply May she never dim her light May the women who came before her Give her strength to stand upright And for Jed, wherever life leads May his spirit find its peace May the hands that came before him Guide him toward the man he'll be And for me, with all my questions With the wounds the years have sewn May I trust the road beneath me Even when I walk alone **[Pre-Chorus — Rising Fiddle and Horns]** For we carry more than memories More than sorrow, more than names We carry generations Like an ever-burning flame **[Chorus — Full Percussion and Strings]** We are never walking alone Through the fire, through the unknown By the blood and by the blessing By the seeds our elders sowed God above and Mary near us May their love and mercy show That wherever life may lead us No road is walked alone **[Bridge — Ancient Prayer, Rhythmic Female Chant]** Holy Mary, Mother, hear us Hold our children in your grace When the world becomes uncertain Help them find their rightful place Heavenly Father, walk beside us When the darkness fills the sky Give us wisdom for tomorrow Give us courage still to try Let the faithful gone before us Live in all the good we do Let their lessons be our lanterns As we follow after You **[Instrumental Break — Tagelharpa, Celtic Whistle, Thunderous Frame Drums]** **[Verse 3 — Strong, Resolute Vocal]** If the roads of love should part us If our stories change with time If the future looks much different Than the one we drew in mind Let no bitterness define us Let no fear become our home For the bonds that made us family Have a meaning of their own We cannot command tomorrow Cannot force the stars to stay But we can choose to walk with kindness And let Heaven light the way **[Final Chorus — Immense, Triumphant, Soaring Voice]** WE ARE NEVER WALKING ALONE! Through the fire, through the unknown! By the blood and by the blessing By the love that brought us home! God above and Mary near us Every generation known May their prayers and strength surround us Till our wandering souls find home! For Dominic, for Amelia For the man I love, for me May the grace of those before us Help us become who we're meant to be! Through the mountains, through the valleys Through the years we cannot know With our faith and love to guide us NO ROAD IS WALKED ALONE! **[Outro — Drums Slowly Recede, One Female Voice]** And when our names are only echoes When our children have grown old May they feel the love we gave them Like a fire against the cold May they know that we were with them In the kindness they have shown And beneath the eyes of Heaven They were never... Truly... Alone. **[Final Low Whistle Note — Silence]**
