Blind Guardian: Precious Jerusalem Meaning
Precious Jerusalem Lyrics
No longer need to hide it
I've found out who I am
I'm moved around in circles
I rise and fall again
I know it well
Every word I tell
Seems to make no sense at all
Words
Will heal it
Love
Will conquer the
Hearts...

Precious Jerusalem is from the album A Night at the Opera. This song details the last moments of Jesus' life and the thoughts running through his head. He's looking at the people of Jerusalem and tells them that even though they're denying his love, fate will not change and he's going to die for their sins. At the end, Jesus says "Rise up and follow me 'cause I will bring the light. Rise up and follow me, wake up and clear your mind." He has risen from the dead. Now Jesus asks all to follow him and he will show the truth. This is also seen in the line "My heavy burden brings eyesight to the blind." Jesus' sacrifice opens up the truth for all to see.
