Keeper Keep Us
As the concert comes to a close, the IGTB encourages everyone to join in with them, on the anthem of the Keeper, the Being that guides them through their journeys — wherever they may be.
Twenty billion miles away
Beyond the doors of time
Watching from a lone celestial tower
There’s a man who keeps us safe
Nothing goes unseen
Stary sentinel so far from home
There within his silent world
He sits a timeless throne
And pioneer ships that pass all bless his name
Children sing of legends old
Across the lanes of space
Stories told about a faceless king
Keeper, the man with the key to our destiny
And we’ve been waiting so long
And we’ve been waiting so long
And we’ve been waiting so long
Ahhh…ahhh…ahhh…ahhh…ahhh…
And we’ve been waiting so long (so long)
And we’ve been waiting so long (so long)
The man with the key to our destiny
And we’ve been waiting so long
Keeper! (and we’ve been waiting so long)
Keeper! (and we’ve been waiting so long)
Keeper! (and we’ve been waiting so long)
Keeper! (and we’ve been waiting so long)....
