Stars

There, out in the darknessA fugitive runningFallen from GodFallen from graceGod be my witnessI never shall yield'Til we come face to face'Til we come face to face

He knows his way in the darkMine is the way of the LawThose who follow the path of the righteousShall have their rewardAnd if they fall as Lucifer fellThe flamesThe sword!

StarsIn your multitudesScarce to be countedFilling the darknessWith order and lightYou are the sentinelsSilent and sureKeeping watch in the nightKeeping watch in the night

You know your place in the skyYou hold your course and your aimAnd each in your seasonReturns and returnsAnd is always the sameAnd if you fall as Lucifer fellYou fall in flame!

And so it must be, for so it is writtenOn the doorway to paradiseThat those who falter and those who fallMust pay the price!

Lord, let me find himThat I may see himSafe behind barsI will never rest'Til thenThis I swearThis I swear by the stars!
