[00:43.75] | "o god of earth and altar,“ |
[00:47.11] | bow down and hear our cry, |
[00:50.41] | our earthly rulers falter, |
[00:53.63] | our people drift and die, |
[00:57.06] | the walls of gold entomb us, |
[01:00.14] | the swords of scorn divide, |
[01:03.33] | take not thy thunder from us, |
[01:06.86] | but take away our pride." |
[01:12.38] | (g. k. chesterton; english hymnal)(g.k. |
[01:18.45] | |
[02:24.97] | just a babe in the black abyss, |
[02:28.08] | no reason for a place like this, |
[02:31.75] | the walls are cold and souls cry out in pain, |
[02:38.70] | an easy way for the blind to go, |
[02:42.12] | a clever path for the fools who know |
[02:45.59] | the secret of the hangman - the smile on his lips. |
[02:53.41] | the light of the blind - you'll see, |
[02:57.61] | the venom that tears my spine, |
[03:01.81] | the eyes of the nile are opening - you'll see. |
[03:08.61] | |
[03:12.72] | she came to me with a serpents kiss, |
[03:16.03] | as the eye of the sun rose on her lips, |
[03:19.97] | moonlight catches silver tears i cry, |
[03:26.80] | so we lay in the black embrace, |
[03:30.10] | and the seed is sown in a holy place |
[03:33.53] | and i watched, and i waited for the dawn. |
[03:40.34] | |
[03:41.48] | the light of the blind - you'll see, |
[03:45.59] | the venom that tears my spine, |
[03:49.79] | the eyes of the nile are opening - you'll see. |
[03:58.34] | |
[05:59.39] | bind all of us together, |
[06:02.80] | ablaze with hope and free, |
[06:05.67] | no storm or heavy weather |
[06:08.61] | will rock the boat you'll see. |
[06:12.12] | the time has come to close your eyes |
[06:15.23] | and still the wind and rain, |
[06:18.03] | for the one who will be king |
[06:21.52] | is the watcher in the ring, |
[06:29.18] | it is you. |
[06:41.63] | it is you. |
[00:43.75] | " o god of earth and altar," |
