Into a Sunset of Pharaohs Gold

The scratches cut deep in red sandstone, 
tell of that ancient Egyptian day.
When the sun on the hall of kings shone,
their faces formed from the light and shade.

The faithful sing in harmonic voice
to praise the idols the gods love most.
This beautiful day the peoples' choice,
parade the spirit kings and their host,

into a sunset of Pharaohs gold!
