O Happy Few

Upward draw
Rays blinding bright

The startled host
Through fiery height

Vaporous souls
Careen black space

Streaking trails
Of embered trace

Northward dart
The faithful few

On glistening waves
Of golden hue

O glorious change
Flux flesh away

Bone to spirit
Light from clay

The table is spread
The linen is new

The mystery is finished
O happy few!
