Lyrics to Good Friday

come lay here beside me and i’ll fear no death

i’ll give you my body then i’ll breathe your breath

no one will harm you inside this song

we will be safe here as the night is long

that makes way for Good Friday



get out of your body for there goes your blood

it falls on the sea grass and colors the flood

the time of our fathers’ is not ours to kill

this sad cellar wine aren’t ours to spill

and won’t be passed over Good Friday



though this life is Ash Wednesday

it’s Ash Wednesday before ever on approaches

Good Friday
