Heritors of Arcadia
On an ocean of stars
Lo, an angel they see
Untouched by the war that they waged
Laid low by their scars
A people wounded but free
Seek what lies beyond this dark age
The seasons they turn, winter to spring
Dulling the pain and erasing the sting
The seasons turn, summer to fall
Time's warm embrace begins to heal all

On the wild at first light
The jasper lion will run
Hark, an anthem he drums, can you hear?
The people fresh from the night
Rise and listen as one
The land that they were promised is near
And though I am gone, just ash in the wind
One life surrendered so yours can begin
Courage my children, this is your song
I am the earth, I will make you strong

The world riven by pride repaired at last
And now its makers can be at rest
Our visions come to pass
The seasons they turn, memory fades
But when my name has been lost to the grave
I will sustain you year after year
I will protect you when dangers appear
And though I am gone, just ash in the wind
One life surrendered so yours can begin
Courage my children, this is your song
I am the earth, I will make you strong
