Kansas - Distant Vision lyrics

On a night as I lay sleeping, in a dream I

saw the shore of a distant land where/

Promise lay in wait/ And I heard the

sound of voices of a million hungry

souls/ Now it comes to me to lead them to the gate

But I am just a man, not worthy of this

plan / With a strength that's not my own,

Imust rise

And I...will bear the light, ( and the

vision leads me onward) / That

blind....men have their sight / I'd sail a

thousand seas to make it so

To the Kings I gave the mission, in the

hope that they would share / In the joy

of setting countless captives free / But

the lust for Gold and power, is luring us

away / From a calling that began in purity

And 'm still just a man, not worthy of

this plan / With a strength that's not my

own, I must rise

Now a tempest rages in my heart, as this

fever furies on / Soon these islands

promise rest and hope, my answers wait

beyond their shore / Dream on...

Hungry eyes are standing on the sand,

they beckon us to bring the tide /

Sovereign hand must hold me now, I plead

with you / Be my soloace and my guide...by

my side

And I...will walk with you / On the

shores of the land ofpromise / That

blind...men see you too / I'd sail a thou-

sand seas to make it so
