Take a long cold look into the earth Know your next to enter there A panic sweeps through your veins and tears Leak down out of your eyes Pain shoots through your nerves and your fibers cringe What hope is there in this suffering The darkness deep and weighed down A cold wind sweeps your sweat away Your shivers fight against a slow decay A light so bright pierced through the veil The size of a pinhole no more The warm ray of hope made it all so clear Though understanding was not the darkness It tried to push and hide away the light Though none could conceal its treasure You reachd your hand out towards a future One that will yield better Your hand is stricken, gnashed and burned But you did not turn away Desperately you grasp to life And feel warmth upon skin, decrepit and stained It takes over your entire soul The point of light spread and enveloped your broken body New life has filled your lungs Rise and stand on new found glory Darkness shall not enter again You raise your hands, now immaculate and fresh You open your mouth and sing The light fills inside your body Joy overflows out of this spring Into the earth you shall never be Forever in the light with the One true King

Into the Earth
Take a long cold look into the earth Know your next to enter there A panic sweeps through your veins and tears Leak down out of your eyes Pain shoots through your nerves and your fibers cringe What hope is there in this suffering The darkness deep and weighed down A cold wind sweeps your sweat away Your shivers fight against a slow decay A light so bright pierced through the veil The size of a pinhole no more The warm ray of hope made it all so clear Though understanding was not the darkness It tried to push and hide away the light Though none could conceal its treasure You reachd your hand out towards a future One that will yield better Your hand is stricken, gnashed and burned But you did not turn away Desperately you grasp to life And feel warmth upon skin, decrepit and stained It takes over your entire soul The point of light spread and enveloped your broken body New life has filled your lungs Rise and stand on new found glory Darkness shall not enter again You raise your hands, now immaculate and fresh You open your mouth and sing The light fills inside your body Joy overflows out of this spring Into the earth you shall never be Forever in the light with the One true King
