Blood Moon Rising

To find light in the dark

Alas, the sign rises in yonder sky

When Light wanes and Darkness blooms

When shadow dances upon the moon on high

And her crimson tiding looms

Come, Blood Moon! Shine your baleful light!

Cast your grim radiance over hill and tide!

Guide the way through darkest impending night,

And by your sign we can till Dawn abide.

Rise, Blood Moon, and raise your vigil high!
