I close my eyes, tell us why must we suffer Release your hands for your will runs asunder My legs long tired, tell us where must we wander How can we carry on with redemption beyond us
To all of my children in whom life flows abundant To all of my children to whom death hath passed his judgement The soul yearns for honor and the flesh the hereafter Look to those who've walked before, to lead those who walk after
Shining is the land's light of justice Ever flows the land's well of purpose Walk free, walk free, walk free, believe The land's alive, so believe

Now open your eyes while our plight is repeated* Still deaf* to our cries lost in hope we lie defeated Our souls have been torn and our bodies forsaken Bearing sins of the past, for our future is taken
War, born of strife these trials dissuade us not Words, without sound these lies betray our thoughts Light, by a flame of doubt that seeks forth Judgment binds all we hold to a memory of scorn Tell us why, given life, we are meant to die, help us in our pride!
Thy life is a river to bear rapture and sorrow To listen to suffer to entrust until tomorrow In one fleeting moment, from the land doth life flow Yet in one fleeting moment for the new leaf doth grow
In the same fleeting moment one must live, die and know.
