Written by Bob Welch. 





He had all the rivers, under his power

He had all the mountains, under his command

You know that he had all the cities, in his own two hands

Yes and he had control of the four winds

And of the hunger of starving man

And now we're passing on the reins

Cause in my heart I can feel the change

You know the lord of light is laughing

Cause things don't stay the same, revelation

Revelation



He controlled the brimstone, and eternal fire

Surrounds himself with downers, in the king of cold

You know that he had all the princes kissing his diamond ring

And I heard that he walled up, the door to summer

And cut the heart out of mister spring

And now we're passing on the reins

And in your heart you can feel a change

You know the lord of light is laughing

Cause things don't stay the same, revelation

Revelation



Dream on, keep your eyes wide open...



On a Sunday morning, with a voice that's cold

The future gives a warning of the fire that burns below

He puts his hands together, cause his faith is strong

And that's what you've been needing

Oh but it don't seem to last too long

Cause now we're passing on the reins

And in your heart you can feel a change

You know the lord of light is laughing

Cause things don't stay the same, revelation

Revelation
