Hinba Lyrics - Singles - Iona

Pulling against the tide, rowing 

Heart praying, thought flowing 

Until the oars touch the ground of Hinba 

Pushing against the eastern wind 

Salt that bleeds into the skin 

Looking over your shoulder to Hinba 

This is where you prayed 

And Heaven's light shone down 

This is where you sang the angel song 

Rising higher, rising higher to beyond 

Morning comes in glorious light 

Sea reflecting calm and bright 

And the song still rises from the island 

Here you came to make your fast 

Prayed for mercy 'til at last 

You heard the word, you waited for 

This is where you prayed 

And Heaven's light shone down 

This is where you sang the angel song 

Rising higher, rising higher to beyond 

This is where you prayed 

And Heaven's light shone down 

This is where you sang the angel song 

Rising higher, rising higher, rising higher to beyond
