From beyond the rift the Nomad has come seeking new meaning beyond artifice Warm dry air rises to meet the morning light while the fragrance of pomegranate fills the senses with subtle anticipation There is a slight almost non human quality to its voice while people turn to question Where do we come from? Where are we going? To what end do we exist? It has looked upon us with love and compassion almost beyond understanding "Fear Not !" It spoke with that strange voice glasslike and musical "You are the children of time itself and your journey and pain and understanding and ecstacy and glory and immortality are just beginning" The New Age of Man has dawned in silence and pain Newborn Testament has become flesh and felt the rush of countless souls From beyond the Rift Nomad has come seeking new meaning beyond artifice Cedars tall and alabaster seraphim down from Shiloh past the New Jerusalem it wandered Where is this Lion called Judah? can event be wrong and frail? Names beyond number we have been called since before time began now we place the burden of faith on those who wish to see Holy Light Eternal and Universal
