Welcome to the Book of Sunder
A Goddess Thou Art
.

.
In times of present and of lore
men to their knees have fallen
to praise their gods and more
to do honor to gold idols stolen
.
But to my soul and heart there is one truth
that brings me joy and happiness
above all things that can my heart soothe
enchanting me with all your charms and tenderness
.
That eternal wonderful joy and bliss
thou art the light that guides my life
for in your arms is heavenly bliss
.
I dread the day that we should part
for without you life would be misery unbound
To live without you would more than tear my heart
that would be death truly found
.
But for you I live each day so bright
and the very goddess of joy in you I see
renewing my life with rapture and delight
.
When in my arms I hold you close
I needn't seek to find the gates of paradise
or life's own eternal red ruby rose
for in my arms you are paradise in disguise
.
The more I feel and see your love for me
the more I flourish and grow in bliss and in ecstacy
thou art the sunlight that brings hope to me
.
And when in your eyes my reflection I see
that wonderous changed new form of me
I know you have made me as glorious as thee
through your sweet love and care,
a god you've made of me so fair
.
When in my arms I find thee
I need no drug nor gold nor wine
to find paradise away from agony
And I pray to thee oh goddess of mine
to share your sweet life with me
and live in joy with me
for that which men call eternity
.
