The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Oh
The rising of the sun
Is seen by everyone
And no-one can deny that it's real
And when you hear the call
Come crashing through the wall
You just can't doubt the things that you feel
So lift me up, the time has come to sing
And give up everything
Oh
Live for the king
Though we fight against the rule
The genius and the fool
Are bound to labor under under the law, yeah
Before each man's a choice
Reject it or rejoice
The vision that the prophets are
So lift me up, the time has come we'll sing
And give up everything
Oh
Live for the king, oh
Living for the king, living for the king, yeah
Living for the king, look with the king, hey, talk with the king
Living for the king, something greater than you and I is the king
Living for the king, rejoice, rejoice, rejoice, it's rejoice
Living for the king, the time has come to sing
We're going to walk, walk with the king
Living for the king, open your eyes, open your eyes
Writings on the wall, don't you be denied
Living for the king, injected of rejoice, before it's meant a choice
