Richmont - Invocation Lyrics

In quest of the uttermost
Long have you searched the distances
For your ship
And now your ship has come
And you must needs go
Deep is your longing
For the land of your memories
And the dwelling place
Of your greater desires
And our love would not bind you
Nor our needs hold you
Yet this we ask
Ere you leave us
That you speak to us
And give us your truth
And we will give it
To our children
And they unto their children
And it shall not perish
Among men
In your aloneness
You have watched with our days
And in your wakefulness
You have listened to the weeping
And the laughter of our sleep
Now, therefore, disclose us to ourselves
And tell us all that has been shown you
Of that which is between birth And death
