C                G
  One day in the year of the fox

        Dm              Am
Came a time remembered well

         F
When the strong young man

        G
Of the rising sun heard the

Tolling of the great black bell

(bass)

Temple of the King

Dm
There in the middle of the circle, he stands

Am
Searching, Seeking,

      G
With just one touch of his trembling hand

     Am
The answer will be found

Dm
Daylight waits while the old man sings

Am
Heaven, help me,

G                   Dm
Just like a rush of thousand wings 

    E
It shines upon the One

        F       G       Am
And the day has just begun

Dm
Far from the circle of the edge of the world

      Am
He's hoping, wondering

G
Thinking back of the stories he's heard

       Am
what he's going to see

Dm
There in the middle of the circle he lies

Am
Heaven, help me

G                    Dm
All could see by the shine in his eyes

     E
The answer has been found

Dm
Back with the people in the circle he stands

Am
Giving, feeling

     G                      Dm                     E
With just one touch of the strong right hand they know

        F      G      Am
Of the Temple and the King
