Crusades - 1866 (Porch and Portal) lyrics

Plunge into imbalance Ice beneath in floes Unstable existence Serving sentence Endless woes ‘Pale, beyond porch and portal Crowned with calm leaves she stands Who gathers all things mortal With cold, immortal hands' Savior came as sinner Horizontal events ‘Desperate plea For recognition And recompense' How long will we carry on?
