There, in that other world, what waits for me ?
What shall I find after that other birth ?
No stormy, tossing, foaming, smiling sea,
But a new earth.


::There, in that other world, what waits for me ?
No sun to mark the changing of the days,
::What shall I find after that other birth ?
No slow, soft falling of the alternative night,
::No stormy, tossing, foaming, smiling sea,
No moon, no star, no light upon my ways,
::But a new earth.
Only the Light.


::No sun to mark the changing of the days,
No grey cathedral,  
::No slow, soft falling of the alternative night,
Wide and wondrous fair,
::No moon, no star, no light upon my ways,
That I may tread
::Only the Light.
Where all my fathers trod.


::No grey cathedral,
Nay, nay, my soul,  
::Wide and wondrous fair,
No house of God is there,
::That I may tread
But only God,
::Where all my fathers trod.
Only God.

::Nay, nay, my soul,  
::No house of God is there,
::But only God,
::Only God.

There, in that other world, what waits for me ?
What shall I find after that other birth ?
No stormy, tossing, foaming, smiling sea,
But a new earth.

No sun to mark the changing of the days,
No slow, soft falling of the alternative night,
No moon, no star, no light upon my ways,
Only the Light.

No grey cathedral,
Wide and wondrous fair,
That I may tread
Where all my fathers trod.

Nay, nay, my soul,
No house of God is there,
But only God,
Only God.
