And with this message that I bring to you
  A beacon of light to see you through
  For the time is on our side
  And a holy man does say to me
  To always to 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 piece
  The lords of light will change this land
  From famine into 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 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 life's 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
