Lanterns of the Storm Lyrics

trial by night
the blinded birds of light
the pride of youth
deceived by men of dust
and if to death reborn
where the holy veil is torn
to brightness in a tainted day of fire
and as the black hand signs the end of days
and the hammer strikes the bells of grace
Hosanna for the earth calls to the sky
like lanterns of the storm of ages
spinning on the wheels of time
destiny has called you to its side
like lanterns of the storm of ages
spinning on the wheels of time
victory of life against the lie?
and in this last dark rite
in the church of broken ice
where the child of dreams
awakens to the sun
you will walk with me
to the light beyond the sea
a wreath of stars for a crown of mortal blood
and as the black hand signs the end of days
and the hammer strikes the bells of grace
Hossana for the earth calls to the sky
like lanterns of the storm of ages
spinning on the wheels of time
destiny has called you to its side
like lanterns of the storm of ages
spinning on the wheels of time
victory of life against the lie?
