Lyrics Idumea (Sacred Harp) - Sufjan Stevens

Idumea (Sacred Harp)

And am I born to die
To lay this body down
And as 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
