Lyrics
Upon these fields, our battles raged
Upon these streets, our lives are staged
Our stories told on bloodstained page
This fate our own, this place our home
And from these shores, our ships have sailed
Heroes returned and widows wailed
And on these rocks some dreams have failed
This fate our own, this place our home.
This place our home
Within these walls, we've armed our sons
Polished our swords, re loaded guns
We've licked our wounds thank God we won
This fate our own, this place our home.
This place our home
