Ancient of the Old
Lyricist:Darrell Crofts, James Seals
On a crisp as bacon morning with the sunshine on my head From the twilight of the dawning, raised myself up from my bed Fixed mine eyes upon a favor like no mortal eye, behold Then I chose to taste the flavor of the ancient of the old
On a chill as winter evening in a doubtful circumstance He stopped the evil breathing of a one time's serpent's chance Old black sea with silver lining, how I long with all my soul To quaff the mystic fragrance of the ancient of the old
From a red as amber burning with a chalice in my hand I know there is no turning, I must now obey command At last decree has destined, now the mystery untold Will shine in all its glory from the ancient of the old
