Am                       G 
Close my eyes, I cannot see 
Bb              Am 
Sudden blindness upon me

This ray of light is so unknown 

Bb                    Am Bb Gm  A 
From womb of darkness I am born

Lift the veil of shade forever

I receive the gift of sight 
Dm 
And rise!

The cave it still lies within

Like a never ending sin 
                                   G 
Paint these walls with crimson light 
Bb                            Bb  
The phoenix now is taking flight

I sing before you all 
Bb Gm A 
Like Orpheus
