Your eyes with agape's fire, You bore the agony of Your piercing, streaming salvation from the Sinless, Your martyrs, Your people, imprisoned, tortured for their unity with You, Precious One, their blood and thirst speak Your Name, their pearls of prayers, our intercessory prayers You hear, we live undying in You, Your love rises, oh, our faith, our faith in You, always, Your persecuted church keeps its candles lit forever. ~
