Fuck these fucking ballads

When the morn of creation broke

And the world in the smile of God awoke

And the empty realms of darkness and death

Were moved through their depths by his mighty breath

And orbs of beauty and spheres of flame

From the void abyss by myriads oh they came

Away away through the wide wide sky

The fair blue fields that before us lie

Each sun with the worlds that round us roll

Each planet poised on her turning turning pole

For the source of glory uncovers his face

And the brightness o'erflows unbounded space

And we drink as we go the luminous tides

In our ruddy air and our blooming sides

Lo, yonder the living splendours play away

On our joyous path away

Away away through the wide wide sky

The fair blue fields that before us lie

Each sun with the worlds that round us roll

Each planet poised on her turning turning pole

Away away through the wide wide sky

The fair blue fields that before us lie

Each sun with the worlds that round us roll

Each planet poised on her turning turning pole
