lyrics

All Great Things are fallen down
Or held on high by blessed pins -
As blossom to branch
And branch to tree -
A spear, a spike, a thorn for Thee.

And I, the one who weeps awake,
Or turns, unpinned, in my sleep,
For thoughts of thunder, lightning and rain
Or night mares rode again.

Sixteen hooves as cannons sound!
They shake the towers to the ground;
And shake the keys; and shake the chains;
And answer lightning; and answer rain.

But on high the pins still hold
Through blasting heat; through blistering cold;
And onward through the end of time.
Horse repelled; rider felled; angels light from tree to cloud.

And fallen I, upon my knee;
Far less than angel; far less than tree;
Far less than you is bowed me.
Tired, cold, and scared I sing:
All in hope of angel’s wings:
The downy comfort, warmth, and hope.

O, pull the pins!
Let come again All Great Things upon the earth!

about

Stone Breath Red Lion, Pennsylvania

Stone Breath is not new. It is cracked. Broken. Imperfect. Hidden. Weathered by the seasons.

We sing of ghosts and of forgotten paths through forest and fallow field.
