Stepping Stones |
| And so much time has gone |
| Since we worked out in these open fields |
| With the hopes of generations pulled around us |
| And a strength revealed |
| And so much has been done |
| Since we ran around the Snaigow wood |
| And never knowing where our gentle lights might lead us |
| Or if indeed they could |
| And we do not stand alone |
| I know we stand with all the others |
| Out in the deep unknown |
| I know we stand upon their stepping stones |
| Sure and simple souls guarded round us |
| As we worldly grew |
| With nothing greater than what working days might show them |
| They gave us all they knew |
| And though their dreams were small |
| Their true and rural hearts were strong |
| And with an honest smile that burns from somewhere distant |
| They helped us all along |
| And we do not stand alone |
| I know we stand with all the others |
| Out in the deep unknown |
| I know we stand upon their stepping stones |
| And in these silent hours |
| When reflection lays our journey down |
| And we think on all departed conversations |
| It’s such an earthly sound |
| And we do not stand alone |
| I know we stand with all the others |
| Out in the deep unknown |
| I know we stand upon their stepping stones |
