The Flame Passes On

Fire on the arena floor The swords are drawn, Hear the lions roar
 The coliseum laughs and shouts And screams for more

 They tried to crush this mutiny
 In a crimson tide of history
 But when people have seen The truth that sets them free
 The flame passes on, The flame passes on and on From the heart of the people Comes love for the people
 Love that is burning strong
 Oh, from one to another
 This dream of forever The flame passes on

 Because of them we know His Name
 So let's lift the cross, and do the same
 An unbroken line of believers Building a human chain
 And the flame passes on, And the flame passes on

and on and on From the heart of the people Comes love for the people
 Love that is burning strong
 Oh, from one to another
 This dream of forever...
 The flame passes on
 Oh, the light of ages illumines the pages
 Words of an ancient song
 Oh, faith is the fire That burns ever higher
 And the flame passes on

 Mothers to sons, Fathers to daughters - everyone
 Pass it on From the heart of the people Comes love for the people
 Love that is burning strong
 Oh, from one to another
 This dream of forever...
 The flame passes on
 Oh, the light of ages illumines the pages
 Words of an ancient song
 Oh, faith is the fire That burns ever higher
 And the flame passes on

 Feel the flame in your heart Then pass it on
