Lyrics

[Verse 1] Dark nights, planets are set Creator prepares for the dawn of man You're waking up, the day of incarnation Said you're waking up to life [Refrain] Images he made to love Images of gods in flesh Man is wonderful, very wonderful Look at him, beware the future [Chorus] Here is my world and it's waiting for me Paradise before my eyes I am alive in a new born world This heaven will always be mine I'm waking up, the day of man has come I'm waking up, the day of man has come [Verse 2] And God created man from dust With a soul inside his mould And God created womankind The vessel of Satan's hold [Refrain] Creator made the serpent wise Evil in his tempting eyes Man is wonderful, very wonderful Look at him, beware the future [Chorus] Here is my world and it's waiting for me Paradise before my eyes I am alive in a new born world This heaven will always be mine I'm waking up, the day of man has come I'm waking up, the day of man has come [Verse 1] Dark nights, planets are set Creator prepares for the dawn of man You're waking up, the day of incarnation Said you're waking up to life [Verse 3] Here I stand a child in a lonely world, oh no Watch the serpent tempting me to evil The guiding hand will help me on Guiding hand will help me on [Outro] The guiding hand will help me on Guiding hand will help me on
