(there be dragons)
B F# C#m E
Hail majestic corporate light
B C#m G#m C# B E
Heaven born and ever bright
B F# C#m E
How our spirit like the waves
B C#m G#m C# B E
As the breath of thine awakes
B F# E F#
And now the night of weeping shall be
B E E B E
The morn of song
F# G#m C# E B C#sus4 C#m
Ah! We are those whose thunder shakes the skies
A E G#m C# B C#
The thin spun life
B F# C#m E
Home of fadeless splendour
B C#m G#m C# B E
Of flowers that bear no thorn
B F# E
Here may the blind and hungry come
F# B E E B E
And light and food receive
F# G#m C# G#m C#m E
Here mighty springs of consolation rise
B C#sus4 E
To cheer the fainting mind
C#sus4 G#m C# G#m C#
And re-creation find
B F# C#m E
So overcome thy fear
B C#m G#m C# B E
And burst into sudden blaze
B F# E F#
Come blind fury with abhorred shears
B E E B E
And slit the thin spun life
F# G#m C# E B C#sus4 C#m
Ah! Sobbing with their human sort of wail
A E G#m C#
Thy justice fear
B F# C#m E
Walk in shadow, walk in dread
B C#m G#m C# B E
Loosefish walk as like one dead
B F# C#m E
One drop in a winter sea
B C#m G#m C# B E
No more to rise forever
B F# E F#
Anything down there about your souls
B E E B E
Will smash the sun alight
F# G#m C# E B C#
Ah! Yield week in, weak out from morn to night
B C#sus4 E
Feelers from across the sea
C#sus4 G#m C# G#m C#
Come crawling over thee
B F# C#m E
One drop in a winter sea
B C#m G#m C# B E
No more to rise forever
B F# C#m E
One drop in a winter sea
B C#m G#m C# B E
No more to rise forever
B F# E F#
Come blind fury with abhorred shears
B E E B E
And slit the thin spun life
F# G#m C# E B C#sus4 C#m
Ah! Sobbing with their human sort of wail
A E G#m C# B E
The thin spun life
G#m C# G#m C#m E
We are those whose thunder shakes the skies
B C#sus4 E
Whose eyes this atom globe surveys
C#sus4 G#m C# G#m C#
Thy justice fear, hooray!
