Priory of Zion

Who could have ever believed
How the worm would turn?
Who could have ever conceived,
How their world would burn away?

How did the knowledge survive,
In their hearts and minds?
Keeping the secret alive.
There for us to find today.

Living through a thousand years,
Just waiting for a sign,
Every day a thousand years,
Upon the sands of time…
Maybe yours and mine?

Destiny answered a call,
With that first crusade.
Watching jerusalem fall
Careful plans were laid… for him.

There in the temple of light,
Safe from sight or sound,
Under the shadow of night,
Final proof was found… for him.

So upon that holy hill,
They took the sacred vow.
Now a thousand years and still,
Zion "lives" somehow…

They gave us hope, they gave us truth,
Now it's up to you and me,
How we live with our belief,
And what we chose to see.

In the secrets they have told,
How the passion burns!
Will we all rejoice as one,
When a royal king returns…?

Secret ways… cloak and veil,
Holy blood… holy grail,
Sands of time… hold the key,
Kingdom come… for all to see.

Living through a thousand years,
Just waiting for a sign.
Everyday a thousand tears,
Upon the sands of time…

They gave us hope, they gave us truth,
Now it's up to you and me,
How we live with our belief,
And what we chose to see.

In the secrets they have told,
How the passion burns!
Will we all rejoice as one,
When a royal king returns…?
