Clue #3: JUMP IN THE FIRE!

Clue #4: While not a regular in the setlist but when performed, it has been part of a ritual done by the band during live shows.

Incorrect: Heaven Can Wait/Blood Brothers/Stranger In A Strange Land/Montsegur/For The Greater Good Of God/The Talisman/Judgement Of Heaven/Sun And Steel/Another Life/Juanita/I've Got The Fire/Still Life
 
Lord of Light
Correct!

Clue #1:
We are strangers in this lonely promised land.

Clue #2: Gautam Buddha has said, "Be your own light" which is exactly the message being given here by none other than the devil himself!

Clue #3:
Spiral path leads through the maze
Down into the fiery underworld below
Fire breathing lead the way
Lucifer was just an angel led astray


Which has a similar theme to Metallica's Jump In The Fire.

Clue #4: The song has been performed only a few times and as a part of the band performing AMOLAD in its entirety, hence the ritual.
