Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] On the edge of the hill I can hear them calling Old names Soft and still Through the heather falling Every breath of the breeze Carries prayer and story Tangled up in the trees Rising into glory [Chorus] Crying on the wind We are crying on the wind Every heart a single thread Every voice a woven hymn Crying on the wind Till the lonely breaks and bends You can hear us if you listen All our voices All our kin [Verse 2] By the well By the shore Hands in hands We’re standing What was one Becomes more Like the waves expanding All the hurt All the loss Laid in quiet sharing What we carry We cross Into something daring [Chorus] Crying on the wind We are crying on the wind Every heart a single thread Every voice a woven hymn Crying on the wind Till the lonely breaks and bends You can hear us if you listen All our voices All our kin [Bridge] [Voices rise in layered harmony] Oh We answer Heart to heart (ooh) Call and answer Worlds apart (ahh) Still we gather Side by side In the turning tide [Chorus] Crying on the wind We are crying on the wind Every heart a single thread Every voice a woven hymn Crying on the wind Till the lonely breaks and bends You can hear us if you listen All our voices All our kin
