O Death |
O, Death |
O, Death |
O, Death |
Won’t you spare me over 'til another year |
Well what is this that I can’t see |
With ice cold hands takin' hold of me |
Well I am Death, none can excel |
I’ll open the door to Heaven or Hell |
Whoa, Death someone would pray |
Could you wait to call me another day |
The children prayed, the preacher preached |
Time and mercy is out of your reach |
I’ll fix your feet 'til you can’t walk |
I’ll lock your jaw 'til you can’t talk |
I’ll close your eyes so you can’t see |
This very hour, come and go with me |
I’m Death I come to take the soul |
Leave the body and leave it cold |
To draw up the flesh off of the frame |
Dirt and worm both have a claim |
O, Death |
O, Death |
Won’t you spare me over 'til another year |
My mother came to my bed |
Placed a cold towel upon my head |
My head is warm my feet are cold |
Death is a-movin' upon my soul |
Oh, Death how you’re treatin' me |
You’ve close my eyes so I can’t see |
Well you’re hurtin' my body |
You make me cold |
You run my life right outta my soul |
Oh Death please consider my age |
Please don’t take me at this stage |
My wealth is all at your command |
If you will move your icy hand |
The old, the young, the rich or poor |
All alike to me you know |
No wealth, no land, no silver no gold |
Nothing satisfies me but your soul |
O, Death |
O, Death |
Won’t you spare me over 'til another year |
Won’t you spare me over 'til another year |
Won’t you spare me over 'til another year |
Name | Year |
