How Shall I Rise?



How shall I rise
to shine forth in brightness
while mother Rachel weeps?

And how shall I
accept the magi’s gifts
when her treasures are no more?

Let all mortal flesh, with her, keep silent,
let the darkness deep surround;
until the Lord of light and glory,
the bright shining star of dawn,
shall cover her with radiance
and lend to her his joy.
