And with this message that I bring to you

A beacon of light to see you through

For time is on our side

And a holy man does say to me

To alway be blind and never to see

It's not the way he planned it oh no

The time has come to gather up your thoughts

For you have said your peace

The lords of light will change this land

From famine to feast

The buildings that once stood so tall have crumbled to the ground

The silver warriors who came in force are nowhere to be found

Time is the essence the priests do say

To restore your faith in man

For the job you do and the role you play

Will help rebuild this land

Through empty streets and dusty fields we'll fight for what we need

Protected by our swords and shields we can replant the seed

The roads ahead are long and winding on which the bandits thrive

But we have the power of finding illusion to keep us alive

So through the valleys and over the hills we'll march and sing in rhyme

We'll fight until we lose our will for our essence is our time

The sun, the moon, the darkened sky

The morning dew reflecting in my eye

The rising mist, the dampened earth

Are just reminders of what's life worth

And with this message that I bring to you

The morning dew reflecting in my eye

The rising mist, the dampened earth

Are just reminders of what's life worth

And with this message that I bring to you

A beacon of light to see you through

For time is on our side

For time is the essence
