the shining shining world

		consider the lillies of the field
		consider the carnage and massacre
		consider the love and embraces
		consider the hangingred skies
		consider the pain of your enemy
		consider the hatred of your friend
		there oh there there is the land
		all the musics shall combine
		and all the daughters are no longer brought low
		they are araised
		on brightfiregodgiven they rejoice
		and those who deny this world
		is the soul of the unbroken one
		lie
		this is indeed Paradise
		(come i shall show you where the stars give birth and sleep)
		and all around you is the warm bluegreen breath of heavens
		do not fear
		around you is the vast blueblack space of stars
		do not fear
		this is the great ocean
		on which the endless waves crash down
		God is not dead
		there is no death i say
		(come i shall show you where dreams go to when they die)
		
		hurry now; the sun is descending
		the shadows wait to play
