I've prayed for hours,

Even in my sleep,

Yet still forgotten,

Rest my eternal belief.

Forsaken freedom,

All has gone away,

I await reprisal,

The warmth of a welcome day!

Speak to me - from the mist of all time,

I have gathered all your lies!

One more chance,

One more harvest,

One last time,

I'll cry!

I saved your life,

Your missive lost to spite!

The house of God,

Will deny my passage - yet!

Beloved I was,

Beheld by all to see.

Now I wallow,

I'm lost to grace...

What you've done,

Has sealed away,

My final deeds,

Are led astray!

Speak to me - from the mist of all time,

I have gathered all your lies!

Though I am withered,

Though I may die,

Still I lay my hand upon your side!
