Down Through the Ages

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Give me strength to retain What my fathers brought forth Hold no scars on their memory No regret for the truth they had founded Nevermore this tragedy [Pre-Chorus] Forsaken few, they're left with nothing No longer hold them down [Verse 2] Hands once tied Now empower my enemy A common thread That oppression believes The grand design (The grand design) Ends in tyranny The cost of safety's paid When no one is free [Pre-Chorus] Forsaken few (Forsaken few) They're left with nothing No longer hold them down Believe this truth (Believe this truth): We're wrong to trust them No longer hold them down [Chorus] It's come, down through the ages Don't let it fall away Don't let it fall away This gift, down through the ages Don't let it fall away Don't let it fall away [Bridge] Our greatness is our proof They know these words are true [Guitar Solo] [Pre-Chorus] Believe this truth (Believe this truth): We're wrong to trust them (Wrong to trust them) [Chorus] It's come, down through the ages Don't let it fall away Don't let it fall away This gift, down through the ages Don't let it fall away Don't let it fall away It's come, down through the ages Don't let it fall away Don't let it fall away This gift, down through the ages Don't let it fall away Don't let it fall away
