Lyrics Virgin Black

Virgin Black

In Death

O misery you live

I have been struck and am suffering

O misery you live

You take bread from hands

that hold so little

And show treason to a faithful heart

There is no healing balm of reason

O wretchedness, o misery

Fall upon mercy

Set thy Alter here

Lifeless life cradles lifeless death

Set thy alter here

Fall Upon Mercy

O wretchedness O misery

O Misery you live

I have been struck and am suffering

O Misery you live

O misery you live in death

Exaudi orationem (meam)

Quantus tremor est furturus

Exaudi orationem (meam)

The hour is at, parting is at hand

the hour is at hand

The Hour is at, parting is at...
