The flame passes on

Fire on the arena floor
The swords are drawn, hear the lions roar
The coliseum laughs and shouts and screams for more

They tried to crush this mutiny
In a crimson tide of history
But when people have seen the truth that sets them free
The flame passes on, the flame passes on

(Chorus)
From the heart of the people comes love for the people
Love that is burning strong
Oh from one to another
The dream of forever...
The flame passes on

Because of them we know his name
So let's lift the cross, and do the same
An unbroken line of believers building a human chain
And the flame passes on, the flame passes on

(Chorus)
From the heart of the people comes love for the people
Love that is burning strong
Oh from one to another
This dream of forever...
The flame passes on
Oh the light of ages illumines the pages
The words of an ancient song
Oh Faith is the fire that burns ever higher
And the flame passes on

Mothers to sons, fathers to daughters - everyone
Pass it on

(Repeat chorus)
