Fire on the arena floor
The swords are drawn,
Hear the lions roar
The coliseum laughs and shouts
And screams for more
They tried to crush this mutiny
In a crimson tide of history
But when people have seen
The truth that sets them free
The flame passes on,
The flame passes on and on
From the heart of the people
Comes love for the people
Love that is burning strong
Oh, from one to another
This dream of forever
The flame passes on
Because of them we know His Name
So let's lift the cross, and do the same
An unbroken line of believers
Building a human chain
And the flame passes on,
And the flame passes on
and on and on
From the heart of the people
Comes love for the people
Love that is burning strong
Oh, from one to another
This dream of forever...
The flame passes on
Oh, the light of ages illumines the pages
Words of an ancient song
Oh, faith is the fire
That burns ever higher
And the flame passes on
Mothers to sons,
Fathers to daughters - everyone
Pass it on
From the heart of the people
Comes love for the people
Love that is burning strong
Oh, from one to another
This dream of forever...
The flame passes on
Oh, the light of ages illumines the pages
Words of an ancient song
Oh, faith is the fire
That burns ever higher
And the flame passes on
Feel the flame in your heart
Then pass it on
