Journey is the second movement of Through the Heather, a Marian song inspired by the beauty of the Scottish Highlands and by Mary's constant purpose: to lead us to her Son. The song draws upon Mary's Magnificat — “Great things the Mighty One has done, and HOLY is His Name” — and follows her through the changing landscape of the Christian journey: morning and summer, winter and storm, mountain and valley, Cross and homecoming. At Cana she gives the instruction that remains her message to every generation: “Do whatever He tells you.” And when the road grows dark, we remember the Mother who remained beneath the Cross and whom Jesus gave to His disciple: “See your Mother.” The journey continues through the heather, with Mary walking beside us, until our footsteps bring us home to Jesus and our journey ends in song. Through the Heather — Journey From Four Angry Dachshunds Lyrics to: Through the Heather — Journey | A Marian Journey Through the Scottish Highlands Come away across the mountain, Come away where heather grows, Where the morning wakes the Highlands, Where the silver water flows. Mary, walk the hills beside us, Walk beside us on the way; As the morning seeks the sunlight, Lead us to your Son this day. Great things the Mighty One has done, And HOLY is His Name; His mercy flows from age to age, His mercy still the same. Sing, my soul, unto the Lord, Let hill and valley sing: Great things the Mighty One has done— Give glory to the King. By the well beneath the mountain, Where the wildflowers bend and blow, Mary, spread your mantle o'er us When the cold north waters flow. Keep us faithful, keep us loving, Keep us merciful and true; And as once you spoke at Cana: “Do whatever He tells you.” Great things the Mighty One has done, And HOLY is His Name; His mercy flows from age to age, His mercy still the same. Sing, my soul, unto the Lord, Let hill and valley sing: Great things the Mighty One has done— Give glory to the King. When the winter wind comes crying, When the storm is on the glen, When the road is dark before us, Mary, walk beside us then. You who stood beneath the Cross-tree, You who stayed when others fled, Hear the Savior give His Mother: “See your Mother,” Jesus said. Great things the Mighty One has done, And HOLY is His Name; His mercy flows from age to age, His mercy still the same. Sing, my soul, unto the Lord, Let hill and valley sing: Great things the Mighty One has done— Give glory to the King. When the thyme is on the mountain, When the summer fills the glen, We will take the road before us, We will take the road again. Through the heather, through the valley, While the evening shadows fall, Mary, keep us close to Jesus, Till He gathers home us all. Great things the Mighty One has done, And HOLY is His Name; His mercy flows from age to age, His mercy still the same. Sing, my soul, unto the Lord, Let hill and valley sing: Great things the Mighty One has done— Give glory to the King. Mary, bright above the mountain, Like the moonrise through the night, Walk beside us through the heather, Lead us onward to the Light. Through the valley, through the Highlands, Though the road be far and long, Keep our footsteps close to Jesus, Till our journey ends in song.
