[Intro]
Father Fire
Father Light
Kindle in the deep
Proclaim life within the winds
That night-watch keep
Let your flames devour the oak tree’s withe
Lick the sap and leap
Wake the sleeping seeds below
From root-dark sleep
[Verse 1]
Bright one
Rise in rust and gold
Through crack and creak
Dance along the rafters’ bones
Teach the timbers speech
Trace your letters on our skin
Amber
Ash
And heat
Burn our fear to feather-smoke
Leave a clearer beat
[Chorus]
Father Fire
Father Light
Circle ’round us
Burning bright (hey)
Take our breath and give it back
Sharper
Warmer
Clean and intact
Father Fire
Father Flame
We remember now your name
From the coal to morning’s white
Father Fire
Father Light
[Bridge]
From the driftwood
From the dust
From the splintered
Iron rust
Rise and answer
Old and kind
Brand your blessing
On our minds
[Chorus]
Father Fire
Father Light
Circle ’round us
Burning bright
Take our breath and give it back
Sharper
Warmer
Clean and intact
Father Fire
Father Flame (oh)
We remember now your name
From the coal to morning’s white
Father Fire
Father Light
Father Fire
Father Light
Kindle in the deep

Rise in rust and gold
Through crack and creak
Dance along the rafters’ bones
Teach the timbers speech

Stijl van muziek
Ancient folk-ritual vibe with low male chant and airy female harmonies; sparse frame drum and distant drones at first, then growing into a circling, trance-like cadence. Subtle strings and flutes swell on key phrases, ending in a hushed unison whisper and a single droning note., light, deep
