St. Martin's Cross, IonaSt. Martin's Cross, Ionawe are also listening a lot lately to The Waterboy's Universal Hall album, one of Damien's recent purchases (he is the more prolific music buyer in our home). Some of the songs are lame but others really catch you, such as "Peace of Iona". This song sparked a family interest in Iona - what is it, where is it, what is Scott singing about in this song? The Celtic Christian wanna-be side of me rejoiced in finding out Iona is a Scottish island. I'm 1/4 Scottish! Which means Iona is part of Celtic history that I can rightfully lay claim to.

Ever since I left your house, where I heard Laurent lustily singing along to Iona, I cannot get that song out of my head. It's a very interesting melody, to which Laurent gave justice, but all I can remember is Iiiiiii-iiiiii-iiiii-o-na! Help!!!!!

Peace of Iona

peace of iona

peace of the glancing, dancing waves
peace of the white sands
peace of iona
peace of the singing wind
peace of the stones
peace of iona

peace of the crying gulls
peace of the humming bees
peace of the noontime stillness
peace of the dreaming hills
peace of the breath of angels
peace of iona

peace of the saints and seekers
peace of the monks and druids
peace of the resting place of kings
peace of the ruins
peace of doves in the belltower
peace of iona

peace of the glad heart
peace of the rested mind
peace of my lover's pots and potions
peace of her healing hands
peace of her lazy laughter
peace of iona

peace of the unseen
peace of the spirit
peace of iona
peace of the unseen
peace of the spirit
peace of iona
