Lyrics
The keys to death and hell The ailing kingdom doomed to fail The bonds of sin and heart will break The pilgrims course will take Quelling the devils might And ready for eternal fight Aching limbs and fainting soul Holy battles take their toll Liberty and hope divine Changing the water into wine So to you we bid farewell Kingdom of heaven to hell Spirit holy, life eternal Raise me up, take me home Pilgrim sunrise, pagan sunset Onward journey begun To courage find and gracious will Deliver good from ill Clean the water, clean our guilt With us do what you will Then will my judge appear Bear no false angel that I hear For only then I will confess To my eternal hell Now give us our holy sign Changing the water into wine So to you we bid farewell Kingdom of heaven to hell Spirit holy, life eternal Raise me up, take me home Pilgrim sunrise, pagan sunset Onward journey begun Now give us our holy sign Changing the water into wine So to you we bid farewell Kingdom of heaven to hell Spirit holy, life eternal Raise me up, take me home Pilgrim sunrise, pagan sunset Onward journey begun Spirit holy, life eternal Raise me up, take me home Pilgrim sunrise, pagan sunset Onward journey begun
