Ignis Fatuus

Bright rays now beam with hope’s sweet smile midst lurking storm raring to reign to cheer my soul with truth worthwhile… Bright rays now beam with hope’s sweet smile on vain heart’s ignus fatuus* style… God’s light** I seek for faith’s blest gain bright rays now beam with hope’s sweet smile midst lurking storm raring to reign. *a deceptive goal or hope ** John 3:21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
