Sam Lee - The Moon Shines Bright Lyrics

Lyrics The Moon Shines Bright - Sam Lee



The moon shines bright
And the stars give a light
In a little while it will be day
The voice of love it calls upon us all
And bids us awake and pray
Rise, arise and wake thee rise
For life she is calling thee
For it might be the mothering of your sweet soul
If you open your eyes and see
That the life of a man it comes with little plan
It flourishes like a flower
As tender in the heart into which you're born
So cherish your every hour
Summertime is coming
And the trees are sweetly blooming
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the purple heather
Will you go, lassie go
And we'll all go together
To pluck wild mountain thyme
All around the blooming heather
For our time is not long
Time is an old folk song
No longer can we stay
Those that remember say
Blessed are you all
Who make it through this brawl
Long life and another good year
Blessed are you all
Who answer to the call
Long life and another good year
For the moon shines bright
And the stars will be our height
Life she is calling thee
Rise, arise, wake thee arise
And ever more watchful be
