Revelations |
| «O God of Earth and Altar |
| Bow down and hear our cry |
| Our earthly rulers falter |
| Our people drift and die |
| The walls of gold entomb us |
| The swords of scorn divide |
| Take not thy thunder from us |
| But take away our pride.» |
| (G.K. Chesterton: English Hymnal) |
| Just a babe in the black abyss |
| No reason for a place like this |
| The walls are cold and souls cry out in pain |
| An easy way for the blind to go |
| A clever path for the fools who know |
| The secret of the Hanged Man — the smile of his lips |
| The light of the Blind — you’ll see |
| The venom that tears my spine |
| The Eyes of the Nile are opening — you’ll see |
| She came to me with a serpent’s kiss |
| As the Eye of the Sun rose on her lips |
| Moonlight catches silver tears I cry |
| So we lay in a black embrace |
| And the Seed is sown in a holy place |
| And I watched, and I waited for the Dawn |
| The light of the Blind — you’ll see |
| The venom that tears my spine |
| The Eyes of the Nile are opening — you’ll see |
| Bind all of us together |
| Ablaze with Hope and Free |
| No storm or heavy weather |
| Will rock the boat you’ll see |
| The time has come to close your eyes |
| And still the wind and rain |
| For the one who will be King |
| Is the Watcher in the Ring |
| It is You |
