a will of its own

This land sings with a will of its own 
This land sings with a will of its own 
Hear every tree every rock every stone 
Every hill and river, every ancestor’s bone

This land breathes with a will of its own 
This land breathes with a will of its own 
From the Spring of the Maiden to the Winter of the Crone 
Where the seed is planted and the grain is grown

This land cries with a will of its own 
This land cries with a will of its own 
We feel your anger and we hear you groan 
In the storm, in the twister, in the hurricane’s moan

This land rules with a will of its own 
This land rules with a will of its own 
All four corners where the four winds have blown 
From the deepest desert to the arctic zone

This land lives with a will of its own 
This land lives with a will of its own 
We feel your heartbeat and you’re not alone 
We have caused you to suffer and we must atone

This land sings with a will of its own 
This land sings with a will of its own 
Hear every tree every rock every stone 
Every hill and river, every ancestor’s bone
