_ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Eb] Source of all we hope or dread, _ Sheep, dog, [Bb] jackal, rattler, [C] _
swan.
[Eb] _ We hunt your face and long to [Ab] trust That your [Eb] hid mouth will [Ebm] say again
[Fm] _ Let [Eb] there be _ [Cm] _ light, [Db] a clear [Eb] new _ [Ab] day.
_ [Bb] But when [Cm] we thirst in this [Ab] dry _ _ [Dm] night, _ [Bb] _ We [Cm] drink from hot [Db] wells poisoned [Eb] with the
blood [F] of children.
_ And _ [Bb] _ when [Eb] we strain to [Ab] hear a steady [F] homing [Eb] bee,
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _
Our [Eb] ears are balked by [Ab] stifled moans And [C] howls of [C] _ desolation from [Ab] the throats of
sisters, [C] brothers, _ wild men _ _ [Ab] Clawing at the [Gb] gates for [F] bread. _
_ _ _ _ _
Even our own [Bb] _
[Eb] feeble hands, Paid to seize the [Fm] crown you [Bb] wear,
And [Fm] work our private [Ab] habit [Bb] through [Ab] The known [Bb] and unknown _ [Cm] _ lands [F] of _ space.
_ _ [Ab] _ _
_ Absolute [Bb] flame _
[Eb] beyond us, [Bb] Seed and [Eb] source of [Fm] dark and [Bb] day,
_ [Fm] Maker whom we [Ab] beg [Bb] to be, [Ab] Our [Bb] mother, father, [Cm] _ comrade, _ [F] _
_ mate.
_ [Ab] _
Till our few atoms [Eb] blow to dust [Ab] _ Or [Bb] form again in [Gm] _ wiser [C] _
lives.
[Ab] Or find your face and [Eb] hear our name [Ab] In your [Eb] calm voice the [Gb] end of night.
_ [Fm] If [Eb] dark may [C] _ _ end, _ _
_ [F] _ Wellspring [Eb] goal [Ab] of dark and [Bb] day, _
[Cm] Be _ _ [Ab] _ _
here, _ _ [Eb] be
_ _ _ _ _ _
[F] now. _ _ _ _
