arthur somervell - my life has crept so long lyrics

my life has crept so long on a broken wing
thro’ cells of madness, haunts of horror and fear
that i come to be grateful at last for a little thing
my mood is changed, for it fell at a time of year
when the face of night is fair on the dewy downs
that like a silent lightning under the stars
she seem’d to divide in a dream from a band of the blest
and spoke of a hope for the world in the coming wars
and it was but a dream yet it yielded a dear delight
to have look’d, tho but in a dream, upon eyes so fair
that had been in a wеary world my one thing bright;
and i stood on a giant deck and mixt my breath
with a loyal pеople shouting a battle+cry
till i saw the dreary phantom arise and fly
far into the north, and battle, and seas of death
the blood+red blossom of war with a heart of fire
let it flame or fade, and the war roll down like a wind
we have proved we have hearts in a cause, we are n0ble still
i have felt with my native land, i am one with my kind
i embrace the purpose of god, and the doom assign’d
