Revelations



"O God of Earth and Altar,

Bow down and hear our
cry,

Our earthly rulers falter,

Our people drift and die,

The
walls of gold entomb us,

The swords of scorn divide,

Take not thy
thunder from us,

But take away our pride."

(G.K. Chesterton:
English Hymnal)



Just a babe in a black abyss,

No reason for
a place like this,

The walls are cold and souls cry out in pain,

An
easy way for the blind to go,

A clever path for the fools who know

The secret of the Hanged Man - the smile of his lips.



The light
of the Blind - you'll see,

The venom that tears my spine,

The Eyes
of the Nile are opening - you'll see.



She came to me with a
serpent's kiss,

As the Eye of the Sun rose on her lips,

Moonlight
catches silver tears I cry,

So we lay in a black embrace,

And the
Seed is sown in a holy place

And I watched, and I waited for the
Dawn.



The light of the Blind - you'll see,

The venom that
tears my spine,

The Eyes of the Nile are opening - you'll see.
