As I traverse countless stars



As I traverse countless stars,
In a sleep far and beyond mars,
O’ Lord keep me safe from all graves,
Make me sail gallantly above all waves,

But if I should die at those hours,
Let it be a concord that’s only ours;
Be my light all through the way I pray,
Acquit me O’Lord on judgement day I say.

I counted my guilt and scars, So less than my truths and stars Those tears that freely flow like rivers, Soaked more than once like a fever; I break free from shackles and the lots, A new day beckons, I resist not, I anoint my flesh to heed only to heaven wish, From the parchment of truth I teach.. Before the light goes from my sight; And...
