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.
Just a babe in a 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 Hangman
The smile on 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 serpents 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 us all 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.
