Do you like Scotland The Brave? Us too! Do you know the words? Us neither! Having looked at the words, we felt they weren't for us and that we could write words more suited to our performance. Here they are and we hope you like them.
SCOTLAND THE BRAVE Barnett/Beck/MacDougall/Sharpe
Here where the slumbering highlands
Shrouded in night’s deep silence
Ready to glory in the splendour of day;
Here ‘neath the starlight’s awning
Long ere the sun’s new dawning
Stands as our guard ‘til morning
Scotland the Brave.
Swift now the light is stealing
Glorious her land revealing
Mountains and rivers reeling down to the glens;
Shores where the oceans shimmer
Blazing with azure glimmer
Heaven’s fire that ne’er grows dimmer,
Scotland the Brave.
Proud land of majesty
Guardian of liberty
Blessed by the blood that your warriors freely gave;
Pride that will bind together
Honour that none can sever
To thee my heart forever,
Scotland the Brave.
Let us, the truth discerning,
Bring to our children learning,
Hope for the future burning bright in their veins;
Young hearts of fearless mission,
Honesty, strength and vision,
Grace yet our noble nation,
Scotland the Brave.
Land rich in history
Lochs deep with mystery
Islands that whisper their songs across the waves;
Music from heaven springing
Joy to my heart is bringing
To thee my soul is singing,
Scotland the Brave.
