The Light of the World or The Great Consummation | ||
Peace beginnning to be,
Deep as the sleep of the sea
When the stars their faces glass
In its blue tranquillity;
Hearts of men upon Earth,
From the First to the Second Birth,
To rest as the wild waters rest
With the colours of Heaven on their breast.
Deep as the sleep of the sea
When the stars their faces glass
In its blue tranquillity;
Hearts of men upon Earth,
From the First to the Second Birth,
To rest as the wild waters rest
With the colours of Heaven on their breast.
Love, which is sunlight of peace,
Age by age to increase,
Till Anger and Hate are dead
And Sorrow and Death shall cease;
“Peace on Earth and Goodwill!”
Souls that are gentle and still
Hear the first music of this
Far-off, infinite bliss!
