Like Thunder

Let monuments rust — turn diamonds to dust
   let temporal riches be plundered
   let mountains collapse — eternity lapse
   …my love for you is like Thunder.

Let the oceans run dry — earth heaven belie
   let the citadels of faith all blunder
   let our rivals assail — unjustly prevail
   …my love for you is like Thunder.

Let all the stars burst — prosperity reverse
   let toil replace our wonders
   let the foulest protest — virtue arrest
   …my love for you is like Thunder.

Let the sun turn black — the bedrocks crack
   let our aging bodies pull under
   let our convictions betray — our beliefs decay
   …my love for you is like Thunder.

Let the fires descend — the dark clouds distend
   let no devil nor angel pull asunder
   let no vow forsake — your soul never ache
   …my love for you is like Thunder.
