Lyrics
In the Years of the Primal Course, in the dawn of terrestrial birth
Man mastered the mammoth and horse
And Man was the Lord of the Earth
He made him an hollow skin from the heart of an holy tree
He compassed the earth therein, and Man was the Lord of the Sea
He controlled the vigour of steam, he harnessed the lightning for hire
He drove the celestial team, and man was the Lord of the Fire
Deep-mouthed from their thrones deep-seated, the choirs of the æeons declare
The last of the demons defeated, for Man is the Lord of the Air
Arise, O Man, in thy strength! the kingdom is thine to inherit
Till the high gods witness at length that Man is the Lord of his spirit
