Close The Casket

These times try hard to drag me down

But where I’ve been I’ve learned to abound

Well if I fall, that’s not all

For the love above has answered my call

My body shows age beyond its years

And underneath these scars are a billion tears

Through the eye of a needle that I’ve passed through

By the love above that never withdrew

The black passed away now my night is day

I close the casket on the old man’s ways

And now I see through the eyes that were blind

And close the casket as the old man dies

Been so far, been so near

High as the sun and dead to fear

But glitter ain’t gold in every dream

And the choice you make breathes eternally

The black passed away now my night is day

I close the casket on the old man’s ways

And now I see through the eyes that were blind

And close the casket as the old man dies
