Whisst Orren (Nameless Spirit)

Have you ever seen Him face to face
Trying hard to lift your gaze?
Have you looked upon His countenance
Amid the shining rays?
Have you seen His skin of bronze
And His eyes of burning coal?
Have you felt His hand caress you
As He gazes deep in your soul?
Look about at the grass so green
A golden glow fills the sky;
He welcomes all who come to Him,
He'll never pass you by.
Such sweet sorrow and loneliness
Can be filled by looking His way,
And if you've never seen these things
Why not friend today?

Inspired by Stephen Lawhead's many trilogies, "The Song of Albion", "In the Hall of the Dragonking", and "The Pendragon Cycle".

I just never know quite what to expect from you, Alicat.... But I can always count on the fact that it'll be good...
