God is alive, magic is afoot God is alive, magic is afoot God is afoot, magic is alive Alive is afoot, magic never diedGod never sickened Many poor men lied Many sick men lied Magic never weakenedMagic never hid Magic always ruled God is afoot God never diedGod was ruler Though his funeral lengthened Though his mourners thickened Magic never fledThough his shrouds were hoisted The naked God did live Though his words were twisted The naked magic thrivedThough his death was published Round and round the world The heart did not believeMany hurt men wondered Many struck men bled Magic never faltered Magic always ledMany stones were rolled But God would not lie down Many wild men lied Many fat men listenedThough they offered stones Magic still was fed Though they locked their coffers God was always servedMagic is afoot, God rules Alive is afoot, alive is in command Many weak men hungered Many strong men thrivedThough they boasted solitude God was at their side Nor the dreamer in his cell Nor the captain on the hillMagic is alive Though his death was pardoned Round and round the world The heart did not believeThough laws were carved in marble They could not shelter men Though altars built in parliaments They could not order menPolice arrested magic And magic went with them For magic loves the hungryBut magic would not tarry It moves from arm to arm It would not stay with them Magic is afootIt cannot come to harm It rests in an empty palm It spawns in an empty mind But magic is no instrument Magic is the endMany men drove magic But Magic stayed behind Many strong men lied They only passed through magicAnd out the other side Many weak men lied They came to God in secret And though they left him nourishedThey would not say who healed Though mountains danced before them They said that God was dead Though his shrouds were hoisted The naked God did liveThis I mean to whisper to my mind This I mean to laugh with in my mind This I mean my mind to serve 'til Service is but magicMoving through the world And mind itself is magic Coursing through the flesh And flesh itself is magicDancing on a clock And time itself The magic length of God
