THUNDERFORGE

Through forest deep three days I walked
A forest vast, a forest holy
On the fourth day my eyes did see
A wondrous sight not meant for me
A land of God, a river churning
With silver waves forever turning

An ancient oak was on the bank
On which my sword I hung
Branches of gold to heaven reached
Embraced by the clouds above
I climbed the branches far and high
Through fields of stars into the Sky

A hill tall in the sky I saw
A smithy huge on that hill
A forge like I'd never seen
With doors of copper, silver beams

A blacksmith shaped in heaven's forge
And mighty sparks did fly
Forge for us a Sun, o smith!
A Sun for us to see into the Sky!

A hammer great the blacksmith held
And iron flowed like serpent's coils
A dragon black on coals then blew
Over the world the lightning flew
