lyrics

To pave the way a cleanse was made
And what the fires brought was much more than a grave
For the stage is set for the golden age
We will reach new heights by death’s foundation laid

Solemnly, bearing leaves, our glory will grow in a new image built from coal

A tiny leaf that buds at dawn
The birth of a savior to bring along
A bloom of beauty from the ash of yesterday

The ground will move and shifts take place
That will open up in a great display
To bathe in light, the dawn of a new day
To crown the coming of a world for Nature’s sake

No thorny wreath will grace our queen of the new world
Spawns the kingdom of Elkinsia

For now we breathe a virgin air
That’s been purified by those who dared to stay the course

The steady hand
The patient heart
The end that came...

And now delivers us the right to maintain
The throne that has always been for her now rightfully claimed
Adorned with all the simple laws that she has come to proclaim

A tiny leaf that buds at dawn
The birth of a savior to bring along
A bloom of beauty from her hand

No thorny wreath will grace our queen of the new world
Spawns the kingdom of Elkinsia
