What Will the Morning Light Reveal?

lyrics

Why’s the king act so irate?
The Gründlehünter took the bait!
He’ll become like all the rest:
Not a voice of the people but the King’s behest

This game of chess to follow
Our evil King will swallow
All the goodness trapped inside
He’s only full of foolish pride

The Gründlehünter’s will is true
Benedon will not be skewed!
As sure as he was born and raised
Here in Coxally Glen
Where his conscience was made

Standing tall a man at last
He’ll restore the days gone past
The Gründlehünter’s battle-ready
With a hand that’s true and steady!

CHORUS:
Our hope is burning, the wheel is turning
What do we have to give
That hasn’t yet been lost?
Our fingers aching, the earth is shaking

Has our fate too soon been sealed?
What will the morning light reveal?

Gunnora:
The mentor to the stolen boy
Meant to be our country’s joy
Save her soul, she fell in battle
Heard the Gründle’s dying rattle!

The Gründle’s dead, we must regain
The Kingdom’s power once again
Our fate is written on these scrolls
Whose prophecies were long foretold

CHORUS:
Our hope is burning
The wheel is turning
What do we have to give
That hasn’t yet been lost?
Gunnora:
Give me a savior, give me some hope
Am I just a farmgirl at the end of her rope?

I need somebody, someone to trust
Been working so hard all my life
But it’s never enough

Benny oh Benny, tell me what can I do
To get your arms around me for a while

Is he a hero? A lover or friend?
Is he the one that i need?
Or do we pretend?

Benny oh Benny, tell me what can I do
To get your arms around me for a while

BENEDON:
Do my wounds cut too deep?
My obstacles too steep?
My knees won’t stop shaking
As I fulfill this undertaking

On the ledge where fate has thrust me
Can these humble townsmen trust me?
I know not what moves to make
And I cannot stop to weep

My destiny’s written
It’s carved in stone
I walk this path all alone

They call me a hero
A symbol of hope
But I’m feeling closer and closer
To the end of my rope

My destiny’s written
It’s stained with blood
Hear the voices calling from above

MEREDITH:
He’s a strong man and proud
Shirt is clean, doesn’t talk too loud
Strong and just he defends what’s right
To lift the people from their plight so

Say your evening prayers tonight
The Dragon King will check his flight
Visit him make your appeal;
See what the morning light reveals

CHORUS:
Tomorrow morning come what may
The Dragon King will guide our way
Be it honor or be it shame
We fight our fight and earn our name
Has our fate too soon been sealed?
What will the morning light reveal?

We’ll mark our place on fortune’s wheel
What will the morning light reveal?
