I Was There When You Went Under The Water
[C.S. Lewis — The Weight of Glory]
Nature is mortal; we shall outlive her
When all the suns and nebulae have passed away
Each one of your will still be alive
[A Hill To Die Upon]
Stars fail, what did we gain?
Night falls upon us
And nothing shall be the same
I knew suns cooled
But the sky is ice
Frost drips from the lion’s mane
And nothing shall be the same
I was there when you went under the water
I was there when you took a new face
I was there when you went under the water
I was there when you came back from space
Ha-mashiakah!
The music ceases, maestro bows
His baton waves against the grain
And nothing shall be the same
I know nothing
Except I was wrong
Judgment falls like rain
And nothing shall be the same
