Wake Your Weapons

Wake your weapons
When the weary wind fills the way;
Poor pilgrim 
Pray and report all your petitions
To the pure and powerful God.

While the sky waters the wide world 
And while death’s dew dwells on kings
Bear each other’s burdens,
Bring all the hardships 
And let them not break your broken hearts again.
Let not the past ruin your future,
And
Let bygones be bygones.
