O the Journey of the Sun

 

Swift the night is fleeing

The day is born again

Now hear the earth give voice

“O the journey of the Sun”

 

O mighty crown of fire

Thy heavenly torch ignites

The sky in dreams of light

Sing of Sunrise birth

 

So high above the earth

Thy warming rays bestowed

On every living thing

Sing of Noontime glory

 

Now sinking into night

Thy final rays of life

Bathe the sky in blood

Sing of Sunset death

 

Deep, the night is mourning

‘Till day is born again

Now hear the earth give voice

“O the journey of the Sun”
