Each Altar is Minas Tirith

 

Each Altar is Minas Tirith these days

A city of kings and of the true King

Behind whose twice-barred gates and golden doors

The faithful may find refuge for a time

 

From here the King, enthroned, rules over us

At his Table He gives us seats of honor

And serves Himself to us as food and truth

Even as dark armies swarm outside

 

We are often told that we are hopeless romantics

Oh, no

For we are hopeful romantics, and will not yield
