Blessed Banner You Carry Forth
Blessed Banner You Carry Forth
I was lost in field of dreams,
An echo in howling night winds:
I found my way again despite,
dark and gnarly twisting bends,
of shrill lost cries giving deep fright.
You alone, lit my long path,-
from whence you came I do not know:
In darkness, your light begs of me
set about with heart in tow,
receive fruit of my precious tree.
Following love's sweet embrace,
BLESSED BANNER YOU CARRY FORTH,-
That paradise soon to be found,
signals- from star of the North
shining down with heavenly sound.
I was lost in field of dreams,
darling, you alone, lit my path,
Following love's sweetest embrace-
we hold life, devoid of wrath
proving hope for the human race.
