There's war in the heavens Rebellion on high the son of the morning Descends from a black sky Severed and broken His wings burned to dust His coverings of diamonds and gold In a moment in time dissolve to rust Thunder and lightning Shatter the night The dragon of darkness Appears cursed by the keeper of the light The dark one is chosen The scroll has been sealed Lost in the verses of prophets His face is revealed Songs of glory Shout across the land I can take you there Child of mine, take my hand Down through the ages The story's been told The daughter of wisdom Beguiled by the serpent of old Born into sin in a valley of thorns Torn from enchantment and Cast into the eye of the storm Heaven's garden Made by God for man This is paradise Child of mine, take my hand Glory to glory Sin after sin The rider of death Pushes on to the place where The battle must begin Songs of glory Shout across the land This is paradise Won't you take my hand Heaven's garden Made by God for man This is paradise Child of mine, take my hand Oh, take my hand This is paradise
