Caliban's Dream
KARL HYDE, RICHARD DAVID SMITH
Oh
And the rain? tossed about us;
In the garden of the world
But a flame arrives to guide us;
Past the gold between the anvils of the stars
Watch you over all the children in the rain;
And the streets where I remember
Where the fire lights
Are candle souls again;
Affirming flame,
Hear me call;
Through the darkness,
Hear it call to us all
And stir again;
This beating heart
Comes again
Oh
And the drive out all our fears
And the joy drive out our pain
And the nations come to greet us
Waving open arms like waves of golden corn
Ever hear us,
Oh, the spirit of the world
May your light be ever near us
Always lead us from the dark
Though we may fall
We will fly
And with love
Ever call
