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
(Chorus) From the heart of the people comes love for the people Love that is burning strong Oh from one to another The 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, the flame passes on
(Chorus) 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 The 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
