I see myself Beyond deadlands Where trees of health Void lines of age No sullen air No requiem In Bethlehem Eternal light Of womanhood Supernal might Draw me to good A long way Far from the mayhem In Bethlehem
Through grief, I climb The toll of time A solemn flight Beacon of sight My private love My silent song In Bethlehem
Created world Inside one pearl And every grace All in one place To trickle down Dust on the low grounds No flooded plains No borough flames For heaven's perch Or mankind's scourge In Bethlehem My private love song In Bethlehem
