Song Words And Chords In C Major

Out of the mists of time it comes
Older than the oldest lime it comes
Coursing through our veins it comes
Pulsing in our brains it comes
The pure, tribal sound of drums 
(Am)When (G)the (C)winds are (Am)howling,
Vi(G)gil (Am)Keep.
Shel(G)ter (C)us and (Am)save us,
From (G)the (E)deep. 

Chorus: 
A (C)Thiarna, déan (F)tró(C)caire
A (F)Chrío(C)st, déan (G)tró(G7)caire
A (C)Thiarna, déan (F)tró(C)caire
A (F)Chrío(C)st, déan (G)tró(C)caire 

When the storm is raging
and thunder rolls.
Deliver us from the ocean
Save our souls. 

Chorus 

Thank you, Lord, you have brought us
Safe to shore
Be our strength and protection
Ever more
