Sabaoth - Since Shade Relents lyrics

rate me

Since shade relents<br />

Since 'tis indeed the day<br />

Since hope I long had deemed forever flown<br />

Wings back to me that call on her and pray<br />

Since so much joy consents to be my own.<br />

<br />

And all the evil dreams<br />

Ah! Done am I above all<br />

With the narrowed lips, the sneer<br />

The heartless wit that laughed where one should sigh.<br />

<br />

Away! <br />

Clenched fist and bosom's angry swell<br />

That knave and fool at every turn abound.<br />

Away! <br />

Hard unforgivingness<br />

Farewell<br />

Oblivion in a hated brewage found<br />

<br />

Yes, calm I mean to walk through life, and straight<br />

Patient of all, unanxious of the goal<br />

(Void of all)<br />

Envy<br />

Violence<br />

Hate<br />

<br />

And as I may, to lighten the long way<br />

Go singing airs ingenuous and brave<br />

She'll listen to me graciously (I say)<br />

And, verily, no other heaven I crave.<br />

<br />

No other heaven I crave
