My Hope Is My Greatest Resurrection
In Thee I Am Happy Made
Crucified By Your Well-Earned Tradition
We Are Slain That We May Never See The Day
Yet In Our Walled Tombs A Happy Reverie
This Joy That Thee Canst No Longer Steal
Peace On Earth, And Goodwill Befall Thee
We Testify Of God's Omniscient Good Will
We Testify That The World May Bow Before Him
And All The Hills And Valleys Be Made Smooth
One Running Over, Another Crossing Under
And Looking High On Every Outlook And Rill
We That Were Slain Tell The Joy That Befall Thee
And How Happy We Were To Die For One Another
On Battle High Nor Valley Low Was Never A Sweeter Voice
Than My Soulmate Coming To Me From Up The Hill
No More Sad Tidings Bring, The One I Love Is Home Again
Resurrected By God's All-Powerful Omniscient Love
Oh Vacated The Houses and The Little Cottages
But Oh How Sweetly The Angel Sings
Yea, And Over The Housetops All The Angels Are Calling
I Thought They Were Calling The Prophesied Apocalypse
All High And Low And Hopes Were Astonished
I Would See You Again For No Other Wish
And Happy I Love You And Happy I Stay
And Little Flowers But Grace The Heart That Lays Here
Here In This Little Tomb All Hard and Tender Hearted
The Days Of Christmas Fly Oh Surely Infinitely Past
The Winds That Blow Never Shall Annoy Thee
This Tomb that is our Only Home Sweet Home Alone
We'll Live Here And We'll Die Here and We'll Die In Bliss
That Love We Hold So Dearer Than Before
No Ruin Will Destroy Us Though We Lay Here and Pine
No Dark Time Shall Decay Our Unvanquished Hearts
No Powers Of Hell Can Outnumber Our Hearts By Far
And In Our Transgressions, We Happy Be
All Hell Knows Not The Fury Of Our Revenges
Yet Just Now We Are Content To Sit And Love
To Beg, To Steal All Manner Of Offenses
That Life We Hold So Dearly Ours To Keep
May True Love Vanquish Thee and May We Survive
And Live To Know The Love We Love So Much
I love Thee, I Love Thee, My Babbling Heart Has Cried
And All Hell Did Withstand Until the fall of dusk
You Come To Me And Hold Me In Your Arms
Truly I Lost All Meaning When I Saw You
How Mad I was To Abstain and Hurt You
How Cruel My Heart The Day I Hurt and Beat You
No Answer To My Broken Heart Did Find
No Cure To Soothe The longing That I Miss You
Oh Fool I Was To Take Your Love For Granted
Oh Fool, Oh Fool I Was To Yell and Hit You
Of Life dealt me a harder blow in June
I Lost The Love For Whom I'd Long Been Dying
And Though I Lay Awake Warm In My Tomb
Oh Christmas Day Heard All Her Bells A Crying
The Phoenix Rose And Gave Great Mourneeful Cry
So Brave and Sharp The Heavens Started Listening
That Hope Befell On Every Human Ear Unhearing Heard
And In My Loss Felt How Oh Time Unyielding
How Dare The Sacred Arrow Miss Its Mark
How Dare The Road Betray My Lonely Journey
To Abstain The Path I Seek Is Against God's Law
To Turn Aside From The Ways That I Am Seeking
To Tell Me I Am Doomed To Lose My Love
And Take Him When He Unawares Lay Sleeping
Oh Cruel Arrow Thee Shalt Rue The Day
That Loveless and Hopeless My True Love Lay Sleeping
Without An Answer and Without Hope
In The Dark Foreboding Room
The Devil Danced and Demons Growled
Against My Wall In Shadows Lurking
Oh Evil Evil Thee Shalt Rue The Day
That My Love Was Scorned and All Was Turned To Woe
Oh Rotten Tyranny sank the heavy World
and all my sweetest dreams did overflow
the kings were asking me How I Would Like To Die
And I Was Writing Poems To My True Love
If Satan Had Another Place To Haunt
The Holy Hosts Deserted For My Savior
Oh Satan Witchcraft Blushes At Thy Prowess
And Never Were You Tempted To Obey
This Demon Too Long With Me and In Me Hath Been
Oh Devil Tormenting Our Cursed Hearts
We Pray To God The Father Of Us All
We Messengers Oh Sent The World To Awaken
All Hearts Have Hoped For The Lord's Cry To Call
And We Wait With An Expectant Open Ear
We Wait With Hope Yeah Even Hope That Little Bird
That Bird That Keeps Us Alive in Times of Torment
That Bird Whose Winds Do Land Upon Our Backs
And Flies Us To To The Lands Beyond Our Knowing
Oh Second Sight Wert Given Me For A Reason
I See That I Do Tell The World My Visions
I See The Wings Of Eagles On Our Backs
And The Devil In The Cornes Being Cruel
I See That Animals Are Not Our Friends
Too Mean They Seek For Meat To Quench Themselves
White Roses pant for water in the dark
and all their pain undying Still
The Devil broke my heart he broke it clean
Like a Hot Knife Searing Through The Flesh
Oh Mortality Woe Has Never Yet Me Seen
And I have Tasted Of The Flowers They Call Death
Have Died and Found Myy Phantom On The Wall
A Crying and begging for her bread
All Hell Hath Not The Fury To Bring These Two Lovers Home
And God Has Left My Theodore and I For Dead!
In Jesus' Name,
Amen
