Shelter For My Soul
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
At the end of my days
When I'm called to go
Into the open arms
Of the Holy Ghost
To have lived such a life
As I have known
Oh, fortune follow me
That I'm afraid no more
For my great mistakes
I will surely pay
I'm running low
And the devil is on my trail
When fates delivers me
All I'll ask it for
Is a place to rest and shelter
O'er my soul
Oh, if I could spend my days
Free from the prison of your gaze
Then I could die a happy man
Oh, if I could spend my days
Free from the shadow of my name
Then I could die a happy man
And when I am released
From this mortal load
I'll take my leave
But I don't wanna go
When fates delivers me
All I'll ask it for
A place to rest and shelter
O'er my soul
