Verse 1:
Once upon a time
In a land far away,
A baby was born
On a sad winter day.
Oh, child without mother,
Unwanted by dad,
In a new peasant family,
You'd grow and be glad.

Verse 2:
Aunt Maud had you christened
Isabel was your name.
She took you to Castle Down,
But loved you the same.
In your new peasant family,
Prince Julian and Will
Loved and adored you,
But war smoldered still.

Chorus:
Peasant to Lady
To Princess so fair.
Hair like fire, heart full of care.
Your love gives you courage
To go forth every day
Safe in the darkness
For God leads the way.

Chorus:
Peasant to Lady
To Princess so fair.
Hair like fire, heart full of care.
Your love gives you courage
To go forth every day
Safe in the darkness
For God leads the way.
