D        G     A    Bm               G    A       D 
Does the flame burn brighter in your hand when it burned 
       G            D              Bm             A 
In the hand of your father when He says it’s your turn 
         G     A  Bm         G          A   D 
Take the torch of faith, run throughout the land 
        G          D         A   D   G D  
Let the flame burn bright within you

They saw from afar what we know is near
