Beyond the Bridge: Come, O Night

Beyond the Bridge: “Come, O Night“ Come, O night and teach us to believe Send thy peace and preach us silent grief Come winter's cold embrace Come snow endow thy grace Come shivers make us weep Come autumn's scathing breath Come show us blooming death And teach us gentle sleep Hear me, Watchman Come, take me home Come, O day and teach us to believe Send thy light and preach us silent grief Come summer's blazing gown Come burn this sorrow down Come heaven send us rain Come spring put forth thy hand For all that starts must end And yet won't be in vain Hear me, Watchman Come, take me home Away, Away -- Come, take me home May all your silent fears Your dreams and unshed tears Be drowned in rivers deep You'll stay beyond the end A brother, son and friend And we are Ever-watching keepers of your sleep.
