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 judement
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
