Without doubt and without fear
You need to find some comfort here
A little hope to help you cope
When what you need is nowhere near
Make your mark unto these years
Shape your world with salt and tears
Carry on when your will has gone
Be it joy or sorrow
Chorus:
Given time
Given faith
Given courage to embrace
Changes as they each take place
Be it joy or sorrow
Grab this earth just like a wheel
You'll eat some dirt as you get the feel
May you keep it sane and keep it real
Be it joy or sorrow
In Gaelic:
Given time
Given faith
Given courage to embrace
Changes as they each take place
Be it joy or sorrow
Amid the noise amid the haste
May your soul take root in open space
Rise above your worries with truth and grace
Be it joy or sorrow
