Song Of The Ages

there's a house on a hillside in a picture book

where he stands with his mother as I stop and look

he's a child of the northlands with his long golden hair

and his smile running wild

in the snow by the campfire where the nights are long

you can hear his daddy sing a very old song

and his mummy's a beautiful lady in love

and she washes his eye with the fair stars above

song of the ages

and there's a ship set for sailing the rolling sea

there's a little hand waving goodbye to me

fare thee well my loved ones, I'll see you soon

I'll be laughing along some old afternoon
