I sent my soul one parting day, to outer
space, the Milky Way
Eons of time, soul not returned, to let
me know what soul had learned
I wandered lonely, o'er the earth, without
a soul, no time of birth
I roamed the world, without a soul, no soul,
no dream, to me no goal
From wence I came, I want to know, where is
my soul, where did it go
Will my soul come back to me, then from my
torment, set me free
How long it was, ten billion years, ten billion
sorrows, ten billion tears
In silence a voice, it said to me, 'you always
were, and will always be; there is no time from
wence you came, you've always been, and
God's the same'
Did you see my God on high, and did you ask
the reason why
For in the silence this I heard, there was no
voice, no spoken word
' I am Alpha and Omega, this be true, your but
in the twilight passing thru'
' I am the beginning and the end, Alpha and
Omega, thru life to wend'
John Leroy Maxwell
