Fervent Prayer - Rick Wakeman

Replenished with the water, the journey

Continued with haste but somehow

They found themselves separated

Professor Lidenborck’s nephew Axel

Found himself alone

His mind was seized with unparalleled fear

And he saw memories of home flashing before

Him — his fiancèe Grauben, his house and

Friends in Hamburg

He saw hallucinations of all the incidents

Of the journey and, unworthy as he felt

He knelt in fervent prayer
