Oh Sweet Death....



Oh sweet Death

Please comfort me

Oh sweet Death

Please come for me


Hold me tight

Against your breast

Please end my pain

And let me rest


I have feared you

All my life

Despised you deeply

When she was gone


But now I understand

Your blessed kindness

This endless agony

Has cured my blindness


Please enfold me in your arms

and end my pain

Please give lasting peace

To my tortured brain


Please take me across

And end my strife

Please take me home

To be with her


Oh sweet Death

I now surrender all

Oh merciful Death

Please take me across
