《The Kingdom》歌词

[00:00:08] The Kingdom - Caedmon's Call

[00:00:10] I was a pilgrim in early life

[00:00:14] I traveled at night

[00:00:20] Bound for Jordan just ten miles north

[00:00:24] Of a civil war

[00:00:30] Immersed in mercy and Holy flood

[00:00:34] That mingled with blood

[00:00:39] My sextant headed for homebound lands

[00:00:44] Through twilight sands

[00:00:49] But I grew weary and too far gone

[00:00:54] To carry on

[00:00:59] At first my home and my empire soon

[00:01:04] Would there assume

[00:01:09] I'm watching my kingdom tumbling down

[00:01:14] You're flooding my refuge underground

[00:01:19] My kingdom for angels mighty surround

[00:01:24] To take me away from here

[00:01:37] A sea of sand came through fiery pass

[00:01:41] A sea of glass

[00:01:46] An ivory fortress and turret's steel

[00:01:51] Would swift reveal

[00:01:56] The gods of beast and of sun and sky

[00:02:01] With banners high

[00:02:06] Were worshipped in their six temples' fold

[00:02:11] Of desert gold

[00:02:16] I'm watching my kingdom tumbling down

[00:02:20] You're flooding my refuge underground

[00:02:26] My kingdom for angels mighty surround

[00:02:31] To take me away from here

[00:02:59] In summer's sting as the sages say

[00:03:03] The sand gave way

[00:03:08] My empire capsized at vanity's cost

[00:03:13] And all were lost

[00:03:18] I'm watching my kingdom tumbling down

[00:03:23] You're flooding my refuge underground

[00:03:28] My kingdom for angels mighty surround

[00:03:33] To take me away from here

[00:03:37] I'm watching my kingdom crumble and fall

[00:03:40] You're building your kingdom over all

[00:03:45] I'm cursing my wisdom while the angels I call

[00:03:50] To take me away to take me away from here
