The Light Flows
2024-02-14
The colors of dawn cut through
the inky darkness of black and blue.
I thought it was the Rising Sun,
but it was you
It was you
Lux Aeterna
Is the same
from all sides
Lux Aeterna
in your brilliance
Nothing dies.
Shine down for a thousand lives
in the place where nothing dies
pulled into the whirlpool vest.
in the light where no one cries,
Chorus;
Bright star here
Angels, monsters
what’s unclear
burning up with holy fire.
blessed penitent aspire
luminous sparkling soul
making whole
making whole
silence in the rushing din
come and let the light flow in
lift us from the vessels’ grasp
another life we will begin.
Bright star here
Angels, monsters
what’s unclear
burning up with holy fire.
blessed penitent aspire
luminous sparkling soul
making whole
making whole
Come to me with icy fire
the light in you my soul desire
lay your hands upon my head
spark the flame that will inspire.
Lux Aeterna
Is the same
from all sides
Lux Aeterna
in your brilliance
Nothing dies.
This is a song for one of the members of our D&D party, Donar, who is a cleric of the Luxon, a force of light and rebirth.
(It’s part of the Critical Role game universe.)
He’s played by a beloved friend, who also has a lot of light in his being and I’m grateful for him. We recently had an adventure that involved the Luxon beacons and it’s been on my mind.

(I have a tune in mind, but I’m feeling pressed for time and at least want to get lyrics up even without a recording.)
