Aslan the Great Lion

..

He is the Great Lion of Narnia,

Who is not tame, but good.

He always knows, He always sees,

This Son of the Emperor from beyond the sea.

His golden mane shines like the sun,

His creation began at the start of a song.

His roar is magnificent, the loudest you will hear.

At the sound you know that Aslan is near.

His love overflows like an abundant spring,

He is, and forever, the One True King.

His forgiveness rains over the entire world.

His truth strikes deep like the edge of a sword.

"He will crush his head,

And His enemy will strike His heel",

Yet only a time will pass before

His enemy is forced to kneel.

Off in the distance, yet so close and vivid,

The Lion's voice calls to all who will listen:

"You must go, for you know what you must do,

The time has come, the arrow is strung,

Fly straight, Fly true!"

This is the battle hymn that is sung,

He calls to His children, and they will come.

Those who are wise will interpret correctly,

The end has been known from the very beginning,

The names have been written, the blood has been shed,

The Promise was sealed in the traitor's stead.

Neither did death linger, for He did arise.

All sins were forgiven, amid all the cries.

And although great stories must come to an end,

His story goes beyond one can imagine.
