lirik lagu elizabeth maconchy – still falls the rain
still falls the rain ~
dark as the world of man, black as our loss ~
blind as the nineteen hundred and forty nails
upon the cross
still falls the rain
with a sound like the pulse of the heart that is changed to the hammer~beat
in the potter’s field, and the sound of the impious feet
on the tomb:
still falls the rain
in the field of blood where the small hopes breed and the human brain
nurtures its greed, that worm with the brow of cain
still falls the rain
at the feet of the starved man hung upon the cross
christ that each day, each night, nails there, have mеrcy on us ~
on dives and on lazarus:
under the rain thе sore and the gold are as one
still falls the rain ~
still falls the blood from the starved man’s wounded side:
he bears in his heart all wounds,~ those of the light that died
the last faint spark
in the self~murdered heart, the wounds of the sad uncomprehending dark
the wounds of the baited bear,~
the blind and weeping bear whom the keepers beat
on his helpless flesh . . . the tears of the hunted hare
still falls the rain ~
then ~ o ile leap up to my god: who pulles me doune ~
see, see where christ’s blood streames in the firmament:
it flows from the brow we nailed upon the tree
deep to the dying, to the thirsting heart
that holds the fires of the world,~ dark~smirched with pain
as caesar’s laurel crown
then sounds the voice of one who like the heart of man
was once a child who among beasts has lain ~
“still do i love, still shed my innocent light, my blood, for thee.”
