Song lyrics

The sister of sunlight
Comes to my lonely life,
Bearing the crosses I hung –
I hung on my lonely wife.

And the anchor told me,
If I prayed by the river,
That the sweet sound of water
Would always go with her.

All across the Havens
To the waterfall,
They told me I would meet her there
Inside those icy walls.

But how on earth
In this universe
Can they forgive me of my pains,
For all across the Havens
I must stumble,
Locked in chains.

Then the mother of mercy
Showed me her stable,
And told me you would be safe,
Safe in her cradle.

And the waterfall opened,
And the water withdrew,
Leaving me standing
On a road leading through.
