Russell Watson - La Fiamma Sacra (The Sacred Flame) lyrics

(lyrics by Frank Musker, music by Ronan Hardiman) Born with the voice of an angel A boy with the earth on his hands For this child of the lowly Fate had made other plans He was only a man of the people With barely his clothes to his name But when he sang - there was magic Touched by love's sacred flame La fiamma sacra Chorus Holy fire in his soul Born to conquer the dark A man who came - to carry the flame Awakening - la fiamma sacra He sang to the soul of a nation A voice for the meek and the strong A world of fabulous stories Came to life in his song With a gift for the whole of creation He gave not for fortune or fame A simple man - blessed with magic Touched by love's sacred flame La fiamma sacra Chorus Holy fire in his soul Born to conquer the dark A man who came - to carry the flame With a voice that can speak - to the heart Holy fire in his soul Born to conquer the dark A man who came - to carry the flame Awakening - la fiamma sacra
