"Treasure" lyrics

We paid are homage once again
For their devotion to the realm
Revered they stand anointed
By proxy reappointed
Till we erode the Earth below

We've got to treasure the Earth
Treasure the Earth
Forever the Earth

Beyond the precipice ahead
Another path where we may tread
Bequeathed by those before us
Who knew though never saw us
And left a treasure in their stead

Treasure the Earth
We've got to treasure the Earth

And if this hour should be their last
For all such things shall come to pass
Those words which lie, unspoken
Before the hold is broken
And all that stood before erased

We've got to treasure the Earth
Treasure the Earth
Forever the Earth
