With nothing more to say, I leave you with this great commission.
lyrics
Step forth, o soul magnificent
Step forth into the light
You steal away in shadow
You hide away in fright
You greet the warmth of morning
With your coldest robe of night
Step forth, o soul magnificent
Step forth into the light
Step forth, o soul magnificent
And let your beauty shine
Hid deep behind the ramparts
Of the realm of shade and line
Break down the blackened curtain
And set free your grand design
Step forth, o soul magnificent
And let your beauty shine
Step forth, o soul magnificent
To feed the naked eyes
Cast now your shameful cowl aside
Strip bare your soft disguise
And live for this one moment
Before the moment dies
Step forth, o soul magnificent
To feed the naked eyes
Step forth, o soul magnificent
Your fairest sun to rise
