We are near,
Lord,near and at hand.
Handled already,
Lord,clawed and clawing as thoughthe body of each of us wereyour body,
Lord.
Pray,
Lord,pray to us,we are near.

To be watered we went there,
Lord.
It was blood, it waswhat you shed,
Lord.
It gleamed.
It cast your image into our eyes,

Lord.
We have drunk,
Lord.
The blood and the image that was in the blood,
Lord.
Pray,
Lord.
We are near.
