0:51As childhood died the old year
0:56made The Soldier reappear
1:00The ash embowered night and day
1:05as at the gate she prayed
1:09Wyman am I worthy
1:13Speak your wordle to me
1:26and drisk shrouded in its cloak
1:31holway river brook and oak
1:35All souls under Orlam's reign
1:39made passage for the born again
2:01So look behind and look before
2:06at life a-knocking at death's door
2:10and teake towards your dark haired Lord
2:15forever bleeding with The Word
2:19So look before and look behind
2:23at life and death all innertwined
2:26and teake towards your dark haired Lord
2:32forever bleeding with The Word
As childhood died the old year made The Soldier reappear The ash embowered night and day as at the gate she prayed Wyman am I worthy Speak your wordle to me and drisk shrouded in its cloak holway river brook and oak All souls under Orlam's reign made passage for the born again So look behind and look before at life a-knocking at death's door and teake towards your dark haired Lord forever bleeding with The Word So look before and look behind at life and death all innertwined and teake towards your dark haired Lord forever bleeding with The Word
