Look Unto the East Full Lyrics

The teacher of truth told tales of trouble times that would begin And the cynical sewer sowed the sorrowful seeds of seven sins The people placed a prize upon the prince of perfect peace And the one who wooed the world was wounded Look unto the east The morning moved in mournfully with many moments smart My brawny beast who beat the beauty, bound and bit and barred They laid the lash upon him low, his lips moved not the least See him come from where he did go now Look unto the east The devil threw his darts and the dearest dove came dropping down But the spirit slips in soft and sweetly, unseen with no sound The comforter, the counsellor with us 'til time is ceased And the groom will return for his bride Look unto the east And the groom will return for his bride Look unto the east
