Great Christ

Great Christ When you come to your kingdom Without pain and grimace For the cost of so much dross That we pandering to pride become And I Skin blackened in the furnace Sigh for a stronger dye Than fire Like the night that mirrors thy soul Since a black being Must have a black desire Remember me Longing so to love And glisten love like gold
