g k chesterton - the convert - ghizela rowe lyrics

Loading...

after one moment when i bowed my head
and the whole world turned over and came upright
and i came out where the old road shone white
i walked the ways and heard what all men said
forests of tongues, like autumn leaves unshed
being not unlovable but strange and light;
old riddles and new creeds, not in despite
but softly, as men smile about the dead

the sages have a hundred maps to give
that trace their crawling cosmos like a tree
they rattle reason out through many a sieve
that stores the sand and lets the gold go free:
and all these things are less than dust to me
because my name is lazarus and i live
