There is the silence of a great hatred,
And the silence of a great love,
And the silence of an embittered friendship.
There is the silence of a great hatred,
And the silence of a great love,
And the silence of an embittered friendship.
What will you do when you come to die,
If all your life long you have rejected Jesus,
And know as you lie there, He is not your friend?
They come in solitude, or perhaps
You sit with your friend, and all at once
A silence falls on speech, and his eyes
Without a flicker glow at you: --
You two have seen the secret together,
He sees it in you, and you in him.
Daily I search the realms of Hades
For the soul of the hawk,
That I may offer him the friendship
Of one whom life wounded and caged.
