 'Top mountains high
Frigid winds graze charcoal sky
His lowly soul
Bestows hand through sightless cold

Rays breaching night
Darkness peering yonder fright
Fade blackened light
Guide you home, make this right

Blinded you have grown
Distant shadows sow
Breaking dawn, sky above harrows soulless calls

Shoulder ancient sins
Shrouded deep within
Crying free his distant light beckons for your soul

Lost, found, over the ground
In silence we stand
And your hallowed hand
Guides us through the night as I call your name
And you answer this call
My guide, my guide for the blind

'Cross valleys far
Brittle sun sets beyond stars
Your damnèd soul
Grasps his ancient promise told

Daylight shall flee
Fretless hopes beckon you free.
Sun sets for thee;
Blind guide answers desperate plea
(Lost inside eternity)

Blinded you have grown
Distant daylight sows
Fading dawn, sky above harrows ancient calls

Life anew begins
Thriving deep within;
Crying home his distant light beckons for your soul

Lost, found, over the ground
In silence we stand
And your hallowed hand
Guides us through the night as I call your name
And you answer this call
My guide, my guide for the blind

Blinded you have grown
Guiding light leads home;
Absent dawn, sky above fills your soulless call

Burdened ancient sins
Freed from deep within;
Bound alas his distant light now cradling your soul

"For once lost now given hope, these blind may see their land beyond. Sorrows and sins shall burn and wither and all once fallen now stand hither."

Lost, found, over the ground
Calling free without plight
And your hallowed light
Guides our way yonder fray as we call your name
And you answer this call
Our guide, our guide for the blind
