Hail to Thee!

Who in the sunless world can see

And soweth the seeds

To the tree of adversary

Whose roots extend to depths unknown

And whose branches

Reach past the godly sky

Past ancient stars and eternal light

Now rise and shine!

O brethren of mine

And drink from these fountains of darkness

And thread with me these untrodden paths

Through hail and fire

Through blood and ash

We are thy flowering leaves

Sapping the divine light!
