This is the title song for an entire album. When I first discovered this music I was 22
years old. I wore out two cassette tapes
before I was able to obtain it on CD.
The entire album is worth your time to hear.
This title song is one I play through my mind almost every
morning. It expresses who I wish to be
as a Christ follower. This is the only
war I care to wage. Coupled with another
song, Doulos on the album I find both my mission who I desire to become in
Christ.
I could not find a link to this particular song but I found
a playlist for most of the album. This
album is worth owning. Kemper Crabb is
worth understanding. Through both dark
and bright times this music sustains my walk and my journey. Enjoy!
Kemper Crabb
Waiting for flame in
eye of night, I am the fuel for your fire
Light calls ever unto
light. Make me a fleshen pyre.
Touch my lips with the
altering coal; leave your shining upon my soul.
Zion shall ever be my
goal; Zion the telling of light.
Scanning the silence
with inward ears; life is a listening.
Enfolded in echoes of
timeless years; the Word comes whistling.
Build my being from
your throat; meld my meaning with every note.
Wrap me round in an
aural cloak, so I may truly hear.
Drawn towards
destinies darkling kite, riven by reality
Riding the passion to
terrible height, life upon death’s tree
Cause me to drink from
the chalice of fire. Forge me anew in the heat of desire
Let me inhabit the
holy empire and make war on the armies of night.
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn
Mat 13:52 So Jesus said to them, "That is why every writer
who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a home
owner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure
store."

Weird version you use! this is the Amplified version (so very different than yours!)
ReplyDeleteHe said to them, Therefore every [s]teacher and interpreter of the Sacred Writings who has been instructed about and trained for the kingdom of heaven and has [t]become a disciple is like a householder who brings forth out of his storehouse treasure that is new and [treasure that is] old [the fresh as well as the familiar].
