Beckoning One
Forged as thought was wrought foretold
Beaten mettle, emblazoned, bold
Molten cast in conscience cold
Incessant torment, be abided by none
Life’s bitter promenade by pride
Sore invited and faith derides
Draught ardor’s will, coincides
Remanded to Travail's dire dungeon
In epochs unwinding and distilling of time
Vast, near innumerable ancestry, blind
Disparaged vision of the Messianic Line
Depravity’s want fulfilled obsession
Hostage to its ill reservations
Reprehensible gloom bleeds aspirations
Oh, dreamless crevasse, where is salvation?
Now prayer avails by the Healer’s ascension.
'Ere the sun it’s mocking rays
Decry my heart in penance pays
A debt beyond my life-long ways
Eclipsing black, shines the Beckoning One
Light of Life, King of Days
My hollow will is yours, amazed
Will gift unceasing, my Maker’s praise
Faithful and True, in Heaven's procession.
