The seed of a man, Virgin Sun, hail,
High in the love of universe
You must forget the warmth it gave, I will forget the light
You must bring the shadows among us, into my heart and my blood
Silence, calm and beyond, so far and so close it is
I have written a fiery gospel, laid in burnished rows of steel
As you deal within my contemnors, so with you my faith shall deal
Let the might, born out of man, trust the church with his heel
Where all life embrace
Death lives, nature breeds
Like the rain before the dawn
Since the man is marching on
Where all life embrace
Death lives, nature breeds
Since the man is marching on
