A thousand years they waited for

someone who would be true

and now the empty years have passed

the sunlight shines anew



Chorus:

Someone who knows no fear

I feel him near

The child was born to be a king, a king,

And The Time Has Come



He tamed the wild wind when he passed

the birds and beasts he knew

until he came to rest at last

the tall gates he passed through



Bridge Chorus:

And now the story's just begun

A thousand years to stay

We wake each morning with the sun

To live our dreams away



Bridge Chorus
