Defender

When you are old enough to read these words
their meaning will unfold.
These words are all that's left
and though we've never met, my only son,
I hope you know
that I would have been there to watch you grow.
But my call was heard and I did go...
Now your mission lies ahead of you,
as it did mine so long ago:
to help the helpless ones who all look up to you
and to defend them to the end.

Defender
Ride like the wind
Fight proud, my son,
you're the defender
God has sent!

Ride like the wind
Fight proud, my son
You're the defender
God has sent

Father! Father!
Father I look up to you and heed thy call
This letter ends my search
I'll live your dream now passed on to me
And I now wait to shake the hand of fate
Like the dusk awaiting dawn

So wizards cast your spell
With no heart to do me well
So it's written, it shall be
