Distrust - ZaunköniG - 27.05.2007 Distrust A reverent worshipper, oh, Trith! of thee, I bow, with foot unsandalled, wheresoe’er Thy voice may whisper “holy ground is here.” Amid uncertain paths, thy light may be Dim to my wavering feet; yet unto me, Intently waiting, once again, more clear, More tranquil, doth thy holy light appear, As minding me how dreary earth were left, A dark, bewildering waste of thee bereft. Should not thy temple be transparent, Truth? Should not thy undimed altar-fires arise Brightest in human hearts? In our first youth Unchecked we worship there, with fearless eyes! Thou art not exiled thence, oh, spirit of the skies! |
