The Graveyard

Helen I have brought you a lily today

For the roses were frail

And the petals fell away

The morning mist has kissed your grave

Rest now in sleep

Our secrets will keep

Till we speak again tomorrow

When I lay myself down to sleep tonight

I pray I might

Know why God has tempered judgment

Not with mercy

But with sorrow

Let the world forsake me

Let them do their worst I will

Withstand it all

They will not break me

There is another world that watches us

I'm not afraid

The angels know when we have sinned

Or we have been betrayed

As I lay myself down to sleep tonight

I pray I might

Be granted strength to see

The spark of heaven's guiding light

My rebellion waits

The silent cry my spirit sings

Goes far beyond these gates

Oh Helen what awaits
