Rock of muck, decay, and dusk
lies barren, broken once upon.
Eroding specks of endless dust,
a sea of salt and granite musk,
yet words are carried far across
within the wind and whirling gust.
Inside the rock, a rapture roars,
for light wills dust in His abode.
Stone arisen from marble mantle,
Man alone beats pulse of power.
Conquering son of earth and clay
speaks life to dirt as man is made.
Brick by brick, salvation is paved.
From dust we arise, then sink away
Into the grave.
