Lux Obtenebrescit Lyrics


How this life always seems to fade away

to the deep places in the dark.

Only cunning minds might comprehend

why this is and must be so?

Ardor frigesscit, nitor squalescit,

amor abolescit, lux obtenebrescit.

I will see the stars falling down

from the joyously bright blue sunny sky.

And the clouds that gather are but faint traces of my sorrow, of my pain

Ardor frigesscit, nitor squalescit,

amor abolescit, lux obtenebrescit.

Sing unto the night that seeth no dawn

No longer dreaming of things to come

Sing unto the night that seeth no dawn

Never dreaming of a light of salvation
