LAMMANTATIONS OF A MOURNER
Behold, I stand before thine stone tablet
Under a tree nearing the end of life
I spell your name in the wind as I let
My lamenting tears fall and stray with strife
My soul is troubled, my heart is weary
For I desire back your joyful smiles
The load of death on my back I carry
As I stray through the path for days and miles
The autumn leaves do fall into the ground
Fragile and powerless to the cold breeze
You, who's only but a name on the stone
Engraved both in grave and my memory
I beg of the heavens and Light above
Let my tears cease and my soul be at ease
Bring back what was taken from me, my love
Whom I lost to the hands of Death to cease
Is the sky mourning with me as I cry
For the sun hides her face behind the clouds
And the grass I sit on was also dry
Perhaps the skies heard my silent doubts?
O, let the heavens open up the skies
Let them sing their songs, their hymns, and praises
While I sit and hum of my requiem
Yearning for the promise of His graces
I know Your promises, I know You're just
Thus I stand still and wait for Your promise
Days or years, even if I turn to dust
I wait for you to come and give solace
THANK YOU FOR JOINING US!
