lyrics

Curse the night that said, “a child will be!”
Let the clouds settle in
and let the darkness terrify the day

And let the night be barren with no joyful voice within
Let the stars above grow dark
May it wait for light and never see the dawn

Why wasn’t I...
buried in the ground like a stillborn child?
I’d lie at peace
Where the wicked cease from raging
where the weary are at rest
the prisoners rest together
and the small and great are there

Yes, there is life for the bitter soul
who digs to find his death
and he gladly finds his grave
