"The Sun, Whose Rays Are All Ablaze" lyrics

"The Sun, Whose Rays Are All Ablaze"

The sun, whose rays are all ablaze
With ever-living glory
Does not deny his majesty
He scorns to tell a story
He don't exclaim, "I blush for shame
So kindly be indulgent"
But fierce and bold in fiery gold
He glories all effulgent

I mean to rule the Earth
I see the sky
We really know our worth
The sun and I
I mean to rule the Earth
I see the sky
We really know our worth
The sun and I

Observe his flame, that placid dame
The moon's celestial highness
There's not a trace upon her face
Of diffidence or shyness
She borrows light that through the night
Men all acclaim her
And truth to tell she likes it well
So I for one don't blame her

I pray make no mistake
We are not shy
We're very wide awake
The moon and I
I pray make no mistake
We are not shy
We're very wide awake
The moon and I
