Written by Bob Welch. He had all the rivers, under his power He had all the mountains, under his command You know that he had all the cities, in his own two hands Yes and he had control of the four winds And of the hunger of starving man And now we're passing on the reins Cause in my heart I can feel the change You know the lord of light is laughing Cause things don't stay the same, revelation Revelation He controlled the brimstone, and eternal fire Surrounds himself with downers, in the king of cold You know that he had all the princes kissing his diamond ring And I heard that he walled up, the door to summer And cut the heart out of mister spring And now we're passing on the reins And in your heart you can feel a change You know the lord of light is laughing Cause things don't stay the same, revelation Revelation Dream on, keep your eyes wide open... On a Sunday morning, with a voice that's cold The future gives a warning of the fire that burns below He puts his hands together, cause his faith is strong And that's what you've been needing Oh but it don't seem to last too long Cause now we're passing on the reins And in your heart you can feel a change You know the lord of light is laughing Cause things don't stay the same, revelation Revelation
