True As Gold

Christmas leaves its mark on me As I upon this page Here remains a lingering hope To know another age Upon my chest, I bear the past An empty glass to fill Soon shall rise the truest heart Sweet love, grow deeper still Yet remains a hopeful sigh Soon brighter days to come All shall lie as pure and true The heart shall sound a drum Dawn shall find me on my knees My face pressed to the earth The dew upon the grass, my tears Great light, make thy birth Come breath of life, come air so sweet Light the eyes to see Raise the veil of purest gold May all truth come to be
