When all there was was chasm – the darkness and the deep
Humankind had yet to breathe, much less sow or reap
I formed them for a world in which the sunlight makes it day
Now watch them when I take the sun away

The ancients called it “chaos” – the inmost ocean bed
Pressure there to crush the soul – darkness there to dread
On earth but out of reach of each submerging solar ray
Now watch them when I take the sun away

Darkness with a thickness – dense as clay
Ask them how it feels when I take the sun away

The children of the day – they know Me as the Light
They know enough to trust one day there will be no more night
Demigods are false gods, though giants among men
I humbled them time and time again

Darkness with a purpose – let it play
Ask them how it feels when I take the sun
I take the sun
I take the sun away
