A Book For The King
A book has been made for the King, A book of beauty and art; To the good king's eyes A smile shall rise Hiding the ache in his heart - Hiding the hurt and the grief As he turns it, leaf by leaf. A book has been made for the King, A book of blood and of blight; To the Great King's eyes A look shall rise That will blast and wither and smite - Yes, smite with a just God's rage, As He turns it, page by page.
