Oh take my fears and allay them

Oh lay them down in a barley wine

Wind me up and release me

Oh Death don’t take me now

Oh watch the fields torn asunder

Oh under skies of smoke and steel

Steal away to our Eden

Oh Death don’t take me now

Oh show me life everlasting

Oh the last sting of loved ones past and gone

Gone are the days of purpose

Oh Death don’t take me now

When I sleep speak low

When I wake sing so sweet

When I die speak well of me

When I’m reborn sing loud

Oh tired conscience it pulls me

Oh to meet my maker and say adieu

Do not weep for to mourn me

Oh Death don’t take me now

Oh Death don’t take me now

Oh Death come take me now
