cold light - everything persists lyrics

Loading...

the night is come, but not too soon
and sinking silently
all silently, the little moon
drops down behind the sky

there is no light in earth or heaven
but the cold light of stars
and the first watch of night is given
to the red planet mars

and earnest thoughts within me rise
when i behold afar
suspended in the evening skies
the shield of that red star
o star of strength, i see thee stand
and smile upon my pain
thou beckonest with thy mailed hand
and i am strong again

within my breast there is no light
but the cold light of stars
i give the first watch of the night
to the red planet mars

the star of the unconquered will
he rises in my breast
serene, and resolute, and still
and calm, and self*possessed

and thou, too, whosoe’er thou art
that readest this brief psalm
as one by one thy hopes depart
be resolute and calm

o fear not in a world like this
and thou shalt know erelong
know how sublime a thing it is
to suffer and be strong

- everything persists lyrics
