Lyrics Highland Cathedral - The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards

There is a land far from this distant shore
Where heather grows and Highland eagles soar
There is a land that will live ever more
Deep in my heart, my Bonnie Scotland
Though I serve so far away
I still see your streams, cities and dreams
I can′t wait until the day
When I'll come home once more
And so Lord keep me from the harm of war
Through all its dangers and the battle′s roar
Keep me safe until I'm home once more
Home to my own in Bonnie Scotland
VERSE 1.
Land of our fathers, we will always be
Faithful and loyal to our own country.
In times of danger, we will set you free.
Lead you to glory and to victory.
VERSE 2.
Hail, Caledonia, to our ancient prayer.

Joining, together, with one dream to share.
God bless the people of this land so fair.
CHORUS
Gone is the past, let us start anew.
Let this hope of peace, always remain.
Spirit of Scotia, be strong and true.
Then your children will smile again, again, again, again.
VERSE 3.
Rise, Caledonia, let your voices ring
In this Highland Cathedral of our God and King.
Whom, joy and liberty, to all, will bring.
Come; let your heart, with love and courage, sing.
CHORUS
Lonely the exile, o'er distant seas,
The home of their birth, gone from their eyes.
Bring back their souls o′er the ocean breeze
To the land where their fathers lie.
