Lyrics
Escape to the Beginning
Far in the distance
Is cast a shadow
Symbol of our freedom
Will bring us salvation
On the horizon
Hope for tomorrow
Sweeping across the land
To give us unity
Look to the heavens
With tears of triumph
To cherish a new life
And suffer not again
Lift up our spirits
From all destruction
Never shall we return
From conflict we must learn
