Job's Lament - Don Francisco[00:00:00]
Man who is born of a woman[00:00:09]
Flowers and then fades away[00:00:13]
He flees like a shadow at sunset[00:00:17]
In a lifetime as short as the day[00:00:21]
And there is hope for a stump that is severed[00:00:25]
Though it's root grows old in the earth[00:00:29]
At the first scent of water it wakens[00:00:34]
And branches come out in new birth[00:00:38]
But man he lies down and where is he[00:00:42]
The mourners they grieve and they weep[00:00:46]
But from then till the end of the ages[00:00:51]
He will not awake from his sleep[00:00:55]
But oh that my pain would be written[00:01:02]
With lead and a steel pointed pen[00:01:05]
Forever engraved into granite[00:01:10]
That my words would endure to the end[00:01:14]
And though the cry of my heart goes unanswered[00:01:18]
When the breath flees away from these bones[00:01:22]
In my grave I will wait in this knowledge[00:01:26]
In my flesh I will see you alone[00:01:30]
Yes I know I shall see god my savior[00:01:35]
I will look on him just as he is[00:01:39]
And at last we will stand here together[00:01:44]
For I know my redeemer lives[00:01:48]
Now my days they go by like a runner[00:02:07]
Like ships driven hard by the wind[00:02:11]
Like an eagle that swoops on it's quarry[00:02:15]
They rush to my death at the end[00:02:19]
Though I wash me in crystal clear water[00:02:24]
Though I cleanse all my fingers with lye[00:02:28]
In the fierce holy light of your presence[00:02:32]
My uncleanness will stink to the sky[00:02:36]
Turn away then your gaze and your terror[00:02:40]
Till I go to the darkness unseen[00:02:44]
For you’re not like a man I can answer[00:02:49]
And there’s no one to stand in between[00:02:53]
There’s no one no one to stand in between[00:02:58]
But oh that my pain would be written[00:03:07]
With lead and a steel pointed pen[00:03:10]
Forever engraved into granite[00:03:15]
That my words would endure to the end[00:03:19]
And though the cry of my heart goes unanswered[00:03:23]
When the breath flees away from these bones[00:03:27]
In my grave I will wait in this knowledge[00:03:32]
In my flesh I will see you alone[00:03:35]
Yes I know I shall see god my savior[00:03:40]
I will look on him just as he is[00:03:44]
And at last we will stand here together[00:03:48]
For I know my redeemer lives[00:03:53]
Yes I know my redeemer lives[00:03:57]
Man who is born of a woman[00:04:19]
Flowers and then fades away[00:04:23]
He flees like a shadow at sunset[00:04:27]
In a lifetime as short as the day[00:04:32]
