wood and stone

In earth' stillness we now rest.
on the sands of time,
in tents of Fest
moving upon this ocean,
guided by the great, righteous Northern Sun
and the Roaring of the Fire Lion.

Silence fills your house adorned,
in memory of One who was horribly scorned.
A sign of opposition was here,
opposing the proud
and looking to those who fear,
The mighty One who speakes aloud
The Sign who in wood and under stone
is found.

To Jesus we bow and pray,
who know the light,
who know the day,
who sight the sign
on wood and hay.
in cave awakened to glory near,
to hide the One whom Kings hate and Rulers fear.

Now in our hearts awake
Gift to man
to all who take
salvation and the cross that free
all who sight the Sign who see
and bow fragmented upon this Stone
transformed in Glory,
in Light that's shown.

Amen
