Lyrics Idumea - Current 93, Marc Almond

Idumea

And am I born to die?
To lay this body down?
And must my trembling spirit fly
Into a world unknown —
A land of deepest shade
Unpierced by human thought
The dreary regions of the dead
Where all things are forgot?
Soon as from earth I go
What will become of me?
Eternal happiness or woe
Must then my portion be;
Waked by the trumpet’s sound
I from my grave shall rise
And see the Judge with glory crowned
And see the flaming skies
