Benediction - Uli Jon Roth

Take me home

From this land of sorrow

And awaken the seeds that were sown

Point the way that once was known

To the golden sands of home…

Show me the way to the highlands

Where the chimes of freedom call my name

Where the wings of yesterday

Decide what’s here to stay

And rings of Thunderbay

Call forth my heart alone

To the golden sands of home…

Now here I stand before the Son of Man

Crossing over to the other land

And my hand is trembling as I show

Ancient colours painful to remember

Hidden in dark chambers

Lord, all I know is You

All I know are golden seas of home…

The gate that was closed opens wide

As I take my last and final stride inside

And the way in front of me

Is white as is Eternity

This day with certainty

Will stand in the Light of the One…
