[Verse 1]
Now seek surrender not release
And forgive me my zealotry
In silent theatres of temple youth
I shall endear you to his calling, this love
In reorganising the stars in books of lead
Let us lay siege to the sun
He was right there
On sorrow’s embankment
For you to be anchored above

[Chorus]
He was right
He was right there all along
Held you tight
Held on where others let go
He was right

[Verse 2]
On every man’s lips his name
His will shall flow through every vein
Shall throb in every pulse
Through every burning soul
Tides of frenzy shall roll
On sorrow’s embankment
Now do let go

[Chorus]
He was right
He was right there all along
Held you tight
Held on where others let go
He was right

[Verse 3]
Let him pick your life to pieces
Thus the abundant harvests of the golden race
Angels will back up if you give chase
But he’ll send light to the blind
When heavenly minds
Burn with such earthly fire

[Chorus]
He was right
He was right there all along
Held you tight
Held on where others let go
He was right there

What was it you heard?
Now whose prophet sings?
This is his morning
Now his day begins
What was it you heard?
Now whose prophet sings?
This is his morning
Now his day begins
What was it you heard?
Now whose prophet sings?
This is his morning
Now his day begins
What was it you heard?
Now whose prophet sings?
This is his morning
Now his day begins

[Outro]
Held on where others let go
