A Hymn to Truth

[equality72521]

Come, O Veritas joy, come,

with heart, and lips we praise you.

She who's name is Truth be joy,

Stand, O Stand, and praise Her.

In Comfort she cradles us,

This goddess whom we adore;

O' Well of Life, O fire of Love,

Our souls forever praise you.

Veritas does appears in glory

to free men from the dark of night;

Your name engraved on our hearts,

blessed are those who know you.

Blessed is He who brought us She,

in truth we stand forever free;

with strength forever fortify ,

Our minds, Our souls, Our hearts for thee.

Our wicked foes you cast aside,

in peace we dwell in your embrace;

and so to us, with you for guide,

our path is firm, our steps be true.

Let none ever turn from thee,

lest darkness take us to that cave,

in light I walk forever yours,

Mother of knowledge my soul is yours.

rough and unfinished I thought I would post this to get some reactions and help refine it. It is a piece of a wedding ceremony for a friend.

I do not like the part in red
