Faith, Folk & Family Lyrics


For many months we make our home

On raging waves or gentle foam

The seas’ salt taste ever on our lips

As we sail the world in our Dragon ships.

We do not sit with faces long

Debating for hours what’s right or wrong

For the roots of our lives stem from three

Which are Faith, Folk and Family.

If our deeds serve them in peace or war

Performed on homeland or distant shore

Then they are good, with honour bright

And worthy in the high Gods’ sight.

We do not sit with faces long

Debating for hours what’s right or wrong

For the roots of our lives stem from three

Which are Faith, Folk and Family.

But if harm they intend, be it large or small

Then that is wrong and that is all

The guide that you should need for life

In times of peace or times of strife.

We do not sit with faces long

Debating for hours what’s right or wrong

For the roots of our lives stem from three

Which are Faith, Folk and Family.

So we hail the Gods on sea or land

And proudly under the skies we stand

We hail our Mother, the bounteous Jorth

And hail our Folk, the Folk of the North!
