lyrics

Conversation With Death Peter Bellamy “

Oh, what is this I cannot see With that dread hand held hold of me?” “Oh, I am death, none can excel, I opens the doors of heaven and hell.” “Oh Death, oh Death, how can it be That I must come and go with thee? Oh Death, oh Death, how can it be? I am unprepared for eternity.” “Oh, I have come to take your soul, To leave your body and leave it cold, To drop the flesh from off your frame. The earth and worms both have their claim.” “Oh Death oh Death, if this be true Please give me time to reason with you.” “From time to time you've heard and saw I will close your eyes and I'll lock your jaw. “I'll lock your jaw so you can't talk, I'll fix your feet so you can't walk, I'll close your eyes so you can't see, And this very hour come and go with me.” “Oh Death oh Death, consider my age And do not take me at this stage. My wealth is all at your command If you will move your icy hand.” “Oh, the old, the young, and the rich and poor All along with me do have to go No wage, no wealth, no silver and gold, Nothing satisfies me but your poor soul.” “Oh Death, oh Death, now let me see If Christ has turned His back on me.” “When you was called and asked to bow You wouldn't pay heed and it's too late now.” “Oh Death, oh Death please give me time To fix my heart and change my mind.” “Your heart is fixed, your mind is bound And I have the shackles for to drag you down.” “Too late, too late, to all farewell, My soul is damned, I'm summonsed to hell. As long as god in heaven do dwell My soul, my soul shall scream in hell.
