Uli Jon Roth - Benediction

Take me home
From this land of sorrow
And awaken the seeds that were sown
Point the way that once was known
To the golden sands of home...

Show me the way to the highlands
Where the chimes of freedom call my name
Where the wings of yesterday
Decide what's here to stay
And rings of Thunderbay
Call forth my heart alone
To the golden sands of home...

Now here I stand before the Son of Man
Crossing over to the other land
And my hand is trembling as I show
Ancient colours painful to remember
Hidden in dark chambers
Lord, all I know is You
All I know are golden seas of home...

The gate that was closed opens wide
As I take my last and final stride inside
And the way in front of me
Is white as is Eternity
This day with certainty
Will stand in the Light of the One...
