|
There, out in the darkness |
|
A fugitive running |
|
Fallen from God |
|
Fallen from grace |
|
God be my witness |
|
I never shall yield |
|
Till we come face to face |
|
Till we come face to face |
|
He knows his way in the dark |
|
Mine is the way of the Lord |
|
Those who follow the path of the righteous |
|
Shall have their reward |
|
And if they fall |
|
As Lucifer fell |
|
The flame |
|
The sword! |
|
Stars |
|
In your multitudes |
|
Scarce to be counted |
|
Filling the darkness |
|
With order and light |
|
You are the sentinels |
|
Silent and sure |
|
Keeping watch in the night |
|
Keeping watch in the night |
|
You know your place in the sky |
|
You hold your course and your aim |
|
And each in your season |
|
Returns and returns |
|
And is always the same |
|
And if you fall as Lucifer fell |
|
You fall in flame! |
|
And so it must be and so it is written |
|
On the doorway to paradise |
|
That those who falter and those who fall |
|
Must pay the price! |
|
Lord let me find him |
|
That I may see him |
|
Safe behind bars |
|
I will never rest |
|
Till then |
|
This I swear |
|
This I swear by the stars! |
