Solar Has Risen
Solar had risen from the lake’s bed to bless
He removed the night’s veil of blindness
Solar had risen in the far East to bless
He brought the daytime’s peace and calmness
Solar had risen high up as God’s sigil
All watchmen and guards broke night’s vigil
Solar had risen in the far East to cleanse
It gave sweetness to fruits and flowers’ stems
Solar had risen in the East as God’s lens
Sharp toothed reptiles and beasts hide in their dens
Solar had risen in the East unchained
Wounds are now gently eased from biting pain
Solar came with his limitless goodness
Then men came hunting in his brightness
Just as the First Man came out of the greatness
And shone light on the world’s bleak darkness
All the world’s beasts came out of their black caves
To hunt for his pearls scattered in graves
Solar had risen in the East as Christ’s knight
A sign of eons’ splendour so bright
Solar had risen in the East for Earth’s plight
To give the might of their cosmic light
Solar had risen in the East with no slack
With beauty that floods each crack and gap
Solar had risen before all life began
He blows peace into each beast and man
Solar had risen as part of life’s plan
Souls freed from earth and sky in there span
Solar was pulled up for Jesus’s plight
He gave sweetness to the cross of light
Solar left this small world with his great might
Leaving all those awake in much flight
Like the Last Statue will leave for the height
At the last hour of the world’s plight
When the statue of white light has been made
Darkness will be trapped in night decayed
