Walk Me Through the Shallow Valley

*WALK ME THROUGH THE MOUNTAINS VALLEY* Hold my hand and walk me through So that I will neither fear nor fret I am stranger on this lonely path Lead me before the twin ancient temples Let me worship before the daughter of Zion's altars Let me marvel at the sight of the wonders of the gods Let my eyes behold the curves that no architect can make Works beyond the instinct of sculptors Lead me to the mountain top The top men are scared to climb If I cannot touch let me stretch my hands To the thrones of the twin goddess Lead me to the fountain that gives life Same that feed the liquid manner The crave of the sinless infants Maybe I can one day be your priest Fed from the first drips at daybreak And an altar to lay for the night Make a way through the colourful curtains Made of the finest Royal fabrics Let me walk through the soft and lonely valley Let me look up to the hills on both sides The soft but powerful hills of nature The hills that caps its peak with the dark candies The candies we all crave from cradle to grave I heard the kings doff their crowns to have a taste They must be made from the historical honey from the lion's jaw The valley may be short But I can crawl a thousand times the slopes I can climb the steep edges Gently but steady till I reach the top If I'm gentle and steady If I can be slow and determined If I can aim and watch my pace I can get to the land and have my gain Don't take this for a play Believe me I'm willing to lay there till daybreak Be kind to me and reward my effort Be nice to me and renew my strength If I labour for one Bless me with the other Let me drink from the spring till I thirst no more Trust me I shall be gentle and tender I am afraid to go down the stream I was told of how dark and rough the path is I read it is a lonely way It takes no pair at a time I know the path is slippery and steep I'm scared to test the depth with my staff If I go down the stream I heard I may lose my way back home So let me hold on to the hills for now Where I can lay my head and rest for the day Where my sweat would be rewarded And I can have a smile that lasts ages Where thoughts are crested in memories And memories remain till no end Walk me through the hills with the shallow valleys The path my heart so desire *CONCEPTUAL FM ???*
