A Rose Among Thorns [Gabriel's Oboe] lyrics

From a simple prayer

That began as a whisper in a quiet place,

A dream can inspire the world...

A voice echo far away!

The wind can take our thoughts

From the wasteland where we walk

Into a pure land,

As heroes proudly stand

Like a rose among thorns!

From a simple act

That began in the corner of an unlit place,

A vision embraces the world:

A million candles blaze!

We rise above ourselves

With a dignity, somehow

Reach that Promised Land

As heroes proudly stand

Like a rose that grows

In spite of it all!

A simple rose among thorns...

In every lifetime, we find a heart

That lights a spark in the eyes of the weary,

Who can lead me to a greater love;

Show there's good in us...

[Instrumental]
