"Hail The Sunrise" lyrics - URIAH HEEP

We drag these stones out from the earth
Pull them for many days
Breaking bluestone from the ground
We traveled the ancient ways
The holy man ordain no work
They offer a sacrifice
We work our fingers to the bone
Our bodies pay the price

[Pre-Chorus:]
A sacred stone circle
To praise the God's world

[Chorus:]
Hail the sunrise
Shine the dawn
Praise the solstice
All is reborn

We work in teams through day and night
Dig deep ditches down
We haul these rocks into their holes
Our work will be renown
The elders made a covenant
With the skies above
Our survival will depend on it
This will be a place of love

[Pre-Chorus:]
A sacred stone circle
To praise the God's world

[Chorus:]
Hail the sunrise
Shine the dawn
Praise the solstice
All is reborn
Hail the sunrise
Shine the dawn
Praise the solstice
All is reborn

[Bridge:]
We trial in this place
Ancestors before us for years
Built on our faith
Made with our blood, sweat and tears
A place for the living and for the dead
So they may rest
Always remain
This place so blessed

[Guitar solo]

[Pre-Chorus:]
A sacred stone circle
To praise the God's world

[Chorus:]
Hail the sunrise
Shine the dawn
Praise the solstice
All is reborn
Hail the sunrise
Shine the dawn
Praise the solstice
All is reborn
Hail the sunrise
Shine the dawn
Praise the solstice
All is reborn
