Alone, I wane in the shadows I count the hours until I sleep I dreamed a dream as it stood by It made her weep to know I'd die Alone at the end of the day Upon this wedding night, I pray Take these children, my Lord, Thy embrace And show them grace Lord on high, hear my prayer Take me now, to Thy care Where You are, let me be Take me now, take me there Bring me home, bring me home Monsieur, I bless your name Monsieur, lay down your burden You raised my child in love And you will be with God Papa, Papa, I do not understand Are you all right? Why did you go away? Oh, my child, am I forgiven now? Thank God, thank God I've lived to see this day It's you who must forgive a thoughtless fool It's you who must forgive a thankless man It's thanks to you that I am living And again I lay down my life at your feet Because as your father is a saint When they wounded me, he took me from the barricade Carried like a bane and brought me home To you Now you are here, again beside me Now I can die in peace For now my life is blessed You will live, Papa, you're going to live It's too soon, too soon to say goodbye Yes, Gazette, forbid me now to die I'll obey, I will try On this page I write my last confession Read it well when I at last am sleeping It's the story of one who turned from hating The man who only learned to love When you were in his keeping Come with me, but chains will never bind you All your grief, lost behind you Look in heaven, look down on him in mercy Forgive me all my trespasses and take me to your glory Take my hand, I'll lead you to salvation Take my love, for love is everlasting And remember the truth that once was spoken To love another person is to see the face of God You will hear the people sing Lost in the valley of the night It is the music of the people Who will cry into the night Oh, the wretched of the earth There is a flame that never dies Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise We will live again in freedom In the garden of the Lord We will walk behind the plowshare We will put away the sword The chain will be broken and all men will have their reward Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong and stand with thee? Somewhere beyond the barricade Is there a world you long to see? Do you hear the people sing? Say, do you hear the distant voice? It is the future that we bring with tomorrow Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong and stand with thee? Somewhere beyond the barricade Is there a world you long to see? Do you hear the people sing? Say, do you hear the distant voice? It is the future that we bring with tomorrow Ah, ah, ah... beronela Ah, ah, ah...
