The Pilgrim’s Dream,

We gaze at sunset’s glow in western sky
And feel the pilgrim’s gratitude for rest
When day is spent and once again earth lies
Asleep to dream of her New Eden quest.

For earth’s a pilgrim with the human race,
And pilgrim knows as he lays down his head
To enter with her that vast inner space
Where dreams come true and earth is raised from dead. 

The pilgrim’s goal is seen in night-time dreams
With Joseph who protects the Father’s Son
Whose human nature comes from Heaven’s Queen
On earth New Eden’s birth has now begun–

Will be complete when earth and pilgrim wake
And dreams come true for all the human race.
