Angel Standing in the Sun
It came about a sun all blazing bright
had showered gold into the heart of man,
as clouds transparent sprung with golden light
like wings of angel’s gold through blood then ran.
And shining out in glory still like light
a being light-radiant of golden man,
whose living passion like a redding sun,
with bright and fragrant flames of gold had run.
To you in whom all gold has been perfected,
First Begotten of the fire and flood,
My heart is raised to your sole light protected,
Blaze there thou Dayman in the fiery blood.
My thought is ever sprung from one desire,
That please you to burn sole within this fire.
