let it carry me through darkest night

I have two questions about this outstanding song!

First fo all, it's an Éabha solo on the cd. However, it was said to be a group song in the concert. Is that information false or did they change it for the cd?

Secondly, is this an original song or a cover? I have searched for the song but all versions I've found were very different, in melody and lyrics. It#s said to be written by Mutt Lange, who is very famous. But I couldn't find a song called Walk Beside Me written by him, so is it possible he wrote that song specifically for Celtic Woman?

Mutt Lange? As in Shania Twain's ex-husband and songwriting collaborator Mutt Lange?!?!

Can someone verify if these lyrics are correct? Thanks in advance.

A child begins with one single step
Then walks a million miles
And though these wings are not ready yet
I will try to fly

My eyes can't see
My arms can't reach
And each strength when I'm weak
I need your faith in me

Don't walk in front of me
I was not born to follow
Don't walk behind me
We were all born to lead
Don't walk without me
I might need you tomorrow

Walk right beside me
Be the real friend I need

If you take small storms, one at a time
You will move that whole mountain
If you climb each rainbow, its gold that you'll find
And shelter from the rain 

My ears can't hear
My heart can't feel
And each strength when I'm weak
I need your faith in me

Don't walk in front of me
I was not born to follow
Don't walk behind me
We were all born to lead
Don't walk without me
I might need you tomorrow

Walk right beside me
Be the real friend I need

If you climb each rainbow, its gold that you'll find
And shelter from the rain

My heart can't feel
I need strength when I'm weak

It sounded to me like the other girls join in towards the end. That might be the reason why it is listed as a group song. I'm not totally sure though.

Susan and Mairead C. join the song in the very end for the last chorus - just as on the DVD.

   The show has changed on this number, with male choir members Ronan Scolard and Glenn Murphy joining Eabha in the song now.

Really? The show I went to in Dayton had, of course, the choir providing background vocals for Eabha. And then Susan and Mairead C joined her for the final chorus, as on the DVD. Are you saying that Ronan and Glenn join her on the final chorus?

I honestly feel the girls joining together would be more EPiC!

You're in luck!

Eabha sings with the choir beside her and Mairead Nesbitt to the side for most of the song. But near the end, Mairead Carlin and Susan McFadden come out and join Eabha and they embrace for the end of the song. It's really quite nice!
