Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dannyalcatraz" data-source="post: 5524353" data-attributes="member: 19675">To which I reply:"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,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 knowThe secret of the Hanged Man - the smile of his lips.The light of the Blind - you'll see,The venom 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 placeAnd 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.GoBind all of us together,Ablaze with Hope and Free,No storm or heavy weatherWill rock the boat you'll see.The time has come to close your eyesAnd still the wind and rain,For the one who will be KingIs the Watcher in the Ring.It is You.It is You.</blockquote>
