In His Peaceable Kingdom

 

The raging wrath of man

is never satisfied

it burns day after day

in the valley of Hinnom

even in the burning heap

the worm can never die

so long as there is flesh

to feed the festering flames.

 

The eagles gather 'round

for this great and ghastly feast

and when they're quite well filled

then perhaps it can be called

the last supper -

eaten as the sun goes down,

down to the valley - the valley of dry bones,

down to the valley - the valley of death,

down to the valley of the skull

where the restless thoughts of men

find rest.

 

When the sea  is perfectly still,

and her waves no longer tossed,

her soul no longer lost,

then the earth will have joined her mate

on the Lord's mysterious consummation date.

 

When the rage of man is dead,

it shall then, of a truth be said

that the Lover has found His Bride

and she shall forever abide

in His Peaceable Kingdom.
