Song - August 12, 1973

How can the singer sing thee

In the silence that bears no sounds

How shall the dancer dance thee

Where only stillness surrounds?

This morn I am wont to call thee

Yet knowing thee deep within

No prayer from these lips can issue

And yet a prayer breaks in;

A prayer for a song of rejoice

From form that is thy form,

From voice that is thy voice

Breaking the light from the storm.
