A Hymnal for Friends #69
1. To the knights in the days of old,
Keeping watch on the mountain height,
Came a vision of Holy Grail,
And a voice through the waiting night.
Refrain:
Saying, "follow, follow the gleam;"
Signal and sign, long will it shine,
If you follow, follow the gleam,
It will lead to the light divine.
2. All we who would serve the Christ,
Who loyally would obey,
In the consecrate silence know
That the challenge still holds today.
3. Like the knights of the Holy Grail,
We too have our lifelong quest.
By the grace that can never fail,
We'll remember the vision blest.
