MiscellaneousOld Waits Carol lyrics by Kate & Anna Mcgarrigle
The moon shines bright and the stars give a light
A little before it is day
The Lord, our God, He forgave us
And bids us awake and pray
The life of man is but a span
And cut down in its flower
We're here today, tomorrow gone
The creatures of an hour
Today you may be alive and well
Worth many a thousand pound
Tomorrow dead and cold as clay
Your corpse laid underground
With one turf at thine head, oh man
And another at thy feet
Thy good deeds and thy bad, oh man
Will all together meet
My song is done, I must be gone
I can stay no longer here
God bless you all, both great and small
And send you a joyful new year
