The Voice of My Father - Marko Hietala

I know your voice, it echoes through me to infinity

A broken man in flesh, but your spirit’s free

The might of man, it crumbles, the earth’s our destiny

Still I hear, while I’m asleep, how you sang to me

The voice of my father

It’s the voice I’ll sing with too

The voice of my father

Sing my son and I’ll be with you

The voice of my father

From fathers of history

The voice of my father

It is here in me

The doors of heaven might be closed for both me and you

But a righteous man is more than books and rules

I think you could tear down those gates and just walk on through

The honor of men cannot be bound by the words of fools

The voice of my father

It’s the voice I’ll sing with too

The voice of my father

Sing my son and I’ll be with you

The voice of my father

From fathers of history

The voice of my father

It is here in me

They told us that we are dust

But we’re the ashes of the stars

We are burned, but never gone

The miracle of life is in me

And my blood sings on and on

On and on

The voice of my father

It’s the voice I’ll sing with too

The voice of my father

Sing my son and I’ll be with you

The voice of my father

From fathers of history

The voice of my father

It is here in me

It’s the voice I’ll sing with too

The voice of my father

Sing my son and I’ll be with you

The voice of my father

From fathers of history

The voice of my father

It is here in me
