FALL OF AN EMPIRE - RECOGNITION OF THE CHILD

I recognise this mist ........... I’ve walked this path before
I recognise this mist ........... before I went to war
My senses are alert, there is no need for haste
I recognise this war on peace, I recognise my state of grace
Do not allow for the fall of an empire
To be our personal downfall - too much at stake

We’ve walked this path before
It was in ancient times - you remember
We’ve had our Armageddon - we’ve had our holocaust
We’ve walked this path before .... we know the cost
Do not allow for the fall of an empire
To be our personal downfall - too much at stake

I recognise this child, I recognise the need to be gentle
I recognise this much ...... we’ve walked this path before
I cannot say which need is more but needs our dedication
I will not allow for the fall of an empire
To be our personal downfall - too much at stake

I recognise this mist ............ I’ve walked this path before
The mist is just before my eyes ................ extends no more
My vision clears up, there is no need for haste
I recognise this new born child
I recognise our state of grace
We will not allow for the fall of the empire
To be our personal downfall - too much at stake
