Lyrics Big Country – Strong (All Through This Land)

I see a land
Stood at the crossroads
Burnt by the fire
Scarred by the flames

Blood on my hands
Smoke in my lungs
Blisters on my fingers
Nil by mouth

It takes all that you are
All that you can be
It takes all that you can give
Still gives back what’s been given

All through this land (all through this land)
Walk on and be strong

Oh oh oh oh-oh

Call it a flood-land
Call it a home
Call it what you want
You’ll never be alone

In times of trouble
And through it all
In this land of my fathers
Where my children walk

All through this land I see
The crossings of the river
The water gives us life
And takes back what’s been given

All through this land (all through this land)
Walk on and be strong

Through all this time I’ve walked the line

All through this land (all through this land)
Walk on and be strong (all through this land)
Walk on and be strong (oh oh, oh oh)
Oh oh (oh oh, oh oh)

The river flows (oh, oh)
The sea remains (oh, oh)
All through this land (oh, oh)

Walk on ahead (oh, oh)

It takes all that you are (oh, oh)

All that you can be (oh, oh)

The river flows (oh, oh)
The sea remains (oh, oh)…
