Lyrics

[Verse 1] In the years of the primal course In the dawn of terrestrial birth Man mastered the mammoth and horse And Man was the Lord of the Earth He made him an hollow skin From the heart of an holy tree He compassed the earth therein And man was the lord of the sea He controlled the vigor of steam He harnessed the lightning for hire He drove the celestial team And man was the lord of the fire [Instrumental] [Verse 2] Deep-mouthed from their thrones deep-seated The choirs of the eons declare The last of the demons defeated For man is the lord of the air Arise, O Man, in thy strength! The kingdom is thine to inherit 'Til the high Gods witness at length That man is the lord of his spirit [Instrumental]
