Songs Lyrics

Oh the far off flashes of lightning
Serve to warn of the doom that's approaching
And the prophets return to inform them
But they blame and defame and they scorn them
And the winds of destruction are blowing
But the candles resist them by glowing
And as the cloaks of deception are lifted
And the pearls in the sands are sifted
And the houses are filled with learning
And the six million souls are returning

And it's the final revolution
And it's the oldest one of all
And it's the final evolution
Between the mighty and the small

And the battle will not be fought with flowers
Nor by those who dwell in ivory towers
But in the desert where the heat grows hotter
And the should reach out for water
Between the hearts and the mind that it opposes
Between the law of the land and the law of Moses
Between Goliath and the sons of David
Between what's sordid and what is sacred
Between the seekers of truth and the heartless
The holy sparks against a multitude of darkness

(Chorus)

And when the fire submits to the candle
And the pot is as great as it's handle
And when pride is not cherished as a virtue
And when modesty is not seen as a curfew
And when the rich are known as the faithful
And the poor are seen as the ungrateful
And the phantom refugees of falsehood
Who demand their imaginary statehood
From the soul of it's rightful ruler
Who would have sold his birthright much sooner
Had it not been for the fighters of the ghetto
And for the oil that still burns in the temple
But it's better to be divided in the battle
Than to be slaughtered together like cattle
And the victims who despise their own religion
And who plead with the torturer to inflict them
They will be lost in the battle to resist them
And indifference is the gateway to extinction
For they are starving in a land of plenty
With foreign gods they feast and still their empty
But the children of a lost generation
Have returned to rebuild the Holy Nation

(Chorus)
