Isis And Osiris Lyrics

1a LET THE JOURNEY BEGIN

Highlander:
What heathen place is this that
i've arrived in.
Is now the time i pay for all my sins.
I can't believe
that this is God's creation.
This realm was fashioned by the Deil's ane
hand

Indian (Chorus):
No it has been foretold.
In your legends of
old.
Wake the spirit within.
Let the journey
begin.

Highlander:
This quest you speak is for redemption.
How can
we travel when our souls are lost.
You think we find ourselves at gates of
new salvation.
When i an only sense the end is here

Indian
(Chorus)

Knight:
We're at the gates of Avalon.
The island of
spirits.
We're at the gates of Avalon.
In search of the grail.

1b
THE HALL OF ISIS AND OSIRIS

Roman:
There is no way out, slaves for
eternity.
Down in the underworld, the jaws of orcus.
I call on Jupiter,
the ruler of the gods.
Show us the way, from damnation to
salvation.

Egyptian (Chorus):
The fielda of Yaaruh lie witing for us
all.
Rejoice! The judges have ruled.
We have been chosen to enter the
great hall.
Of Isis and Osiris.

Roman:
No you're wrong, we're
trapped here in darkness.
along departed souls, and mislaid spirits.
I
call on Mars, the ancient god of war.
Grant me the power, to free me fromt
his evil

Egyptian (Chorus)

1c STRANGE
CONSTELLATIONS

Highlander:
Can you see the stars?
Can you
recognize the constellations?
If i could only see the hills that we're
supposed to climb.
Even the sunlight.....doesn't warm.....doesn't
warm.
How are we gonna find our way?
If we cann't recognize the stars, if
we cann't recognize the constellations.
Wheer do we go?

1d
REPRISE

Highlander:
The quest you speak of, it isn't bound for
glory.
No grail exists within this heathen land.
When i can only
sense.....the end is near.
