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

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

I traveled at night[00:00:14]

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

Of a civil war[00:00:24]

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

That mingled with blood[00:00:34]

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

Through twilight sands[00:00:44]

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

To carry on[00:00:54]

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

Would there assume[00:01:04]

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

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

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

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

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

A sea of glass[00:01:41]

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

Would swift reveal[00:01:51]

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

With banners high[00:02:01]

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

Of desert gold[00:02:11]

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

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

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

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

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

The sand gave way[00:03:03]

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

And all were lost[00:03:13]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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