"Heaven" lyrics

Upon this day
Where Zion should have fallen
Balance was hanging on a heartstring
Down came the Heart of the World
At the head of the army
This was power, and the prince turned king

And so the story ends
In a burst of divine light
By the grace of the Phoenix
Dispensing wisdom to undeserving fools
The dreadnought of Heaven
Knows your heart and soul
And you've been weighed on the scales
And found wanting

Waking up in the blood of who we kill
Forgive only that which can be forgiven
Climb the stairway and close the gates behind you
Here is where your destiny gets fulfilled

Kingdom come
Thy will be done
Institute peace in a lifetime of war
We shall overcome
It's all around (All around)
And it quakes the ground (Quakes the ground)
The sound of a thousand footsteps following you
Now lead on

Another child will be born
Who will take from the Earth
All that has been given to her
(His mother's curse)

Waking up in the blood of who we kill
Forgive only that which can be forgiven
Climb the stairway and close the gates behind you
Here is where your destiny gets fulfilled

I spent my life waiting for this very moment
Now it's here and it makes perfect sense to me
When empires wane and kingdoms rise
I will rule eternal

Kingdom come (Kingdom come)
Thy will be done (Will be done)
Institute peace in a lifetime of war
We shall overcome
It's all around (All around)
And it quakes the ground (Quakes the ground)
The sound of a thousand footsteps following you
Now lead on
