  • Caedmon's Call The Kingdom Lyrics

           

    I was a pilgrim in early life

    I traveled at night

    Bound for Jordan just ten miles north

    Of a civil war



    Immersed in mercy in holy flood

    That mingled with blood

    My sextant headed for homebound lands

    Through twilight sands



    But I grew weary and too far-gone

    To carry on

    At first my home and my empire soon

    Would there assume



    I'm watching my kingdom tumbling down

    You're flooding my refuge underground

    My kingdom for angels, mighty surround

    To take me away from here



    A sea of sand came through fiery pass

    A sea of glass

    An ivory fortress and turret's stell

    Would swift reveal



    The gods of beast and of sun and sky

    With banners high

    Were worshipped in their six temple's fold

    Of desert gold



    In summer's sting, as the sages say

    The sand gave way

    My empire capsized at vanity's cost

    And all were lost



    I'm watching my kingdom crumble and fall

    You're building Your kingdom over all

    I'm cursing my wisdom while the angels I call

    To take me away, to take me away from here
