The Asisian Knights Song
(to the tune of Amazing Grace, on a lone bagpipe)
The Asisian Song.
(To my friend Lady Grace Whatsername von Diddit)
Tis
amaze – zing Grace, and so profound,
that a wee little thing
like me,
who once was free, but now
I’m bound,
to a world of
insan-it-teeeee.
Twas fate that taught my
heart to dream,
to be free my heart thus
screamed,
how precious did that
scream appear,
when I my self redeemed.
Through many dangers,
toils and snares,
I have already been.
Tis love that saw me safe
thus far,
And love is ev-er-green.
The Way has promised good
to me,
the Way, my hope, secures;
the Way, my shield and
armour be,
as long as life endures.
Yea, when this flesh and
heart doth fail,
and mortal life shall
cease,
I shall posses within the
veil,
that time of eternal
peace.
The world shall soon
dissolve like snow,
the sun refuse to shine,
but love which called me
there within,
is now and forever mine.
When we’ve been there ten
thousand years,
bright shining as the sun,
we have no less days to
sing loves praise,
than when we first begun.
Merlin of Exmoor.
