Lyrics

In this mortal frame
That confines my soul
I am a helpless prisoner
I would do right
I but lack the strength
I'm lost without a saviour
And the chaos of my disordered mind
Brings no relief from pain
Though I long to fly
And sleep with a log
On earth I must remain
But though shadows fall
And though darkness bites
Endlessly returning
I stretch out my hands
To the lovely light
To the flame that ne'er stops burning
Then I slake my thirst
At the singing bowl
Whose mysteries reveal
Where the blood was spilt
And where lives were lost
The sacrifice was real
I have cried alone
Through the endless night
Driven ever onwards
I've lost my faith
I have lost my sight
Blindly I have wandered
I've seen the love in another's eyes
And trembled at the sight
In the burning cities
Of the night
My final hope has died
When the trumpet sounded
On that bright day
Rousing us to battle
We did not retreat
Did not turn away
Our spirits did not crumble
As the hammer fell
And the bellows roared
Our courage did not fail
For we fought beneath
A friendly sword
And love prevailed
Now the earth is torn
And the heavens' roar
We have our reward o
You did not repent
Now it is too late
To outrun a lovely friend.
You refused to live
By the lovely law
That man was born to love
Now your time is spent
And your final pleas
Are swallowed by the flood.
