- I see his blood upon the road
And in the stars the glory of his eyes.
His body gleams amid eternal snows.
His tears fall from the skin
I see his face in every flower
The thunder and the singing of the birds.
Are but his voice and carved by his power
Rocks are his written words
All pathways by his feet are worn.
His strong heart stirs the ever beating sea
His crown of thorns is twined with every thorn.
