Stillbirth Lyrics & Tabs by Levi The Poet
Stillbirth
guitar chords lyrics
How we longed for our mother's womb (or stillbirth).
How we cursed your name and turned to embrace the plague!
"Watch and wait, watch and wait while I weep and pray, weep and pray!"
How we tolerate the weight of the shame that stacks on its pounds!
Our heavy eyelids, sleep betrayed, sleep soundly: sleep soft and sound!
"Be still, my soul;
the Lord is on thy side; Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain;
Leave to thy God to order and provide; In every change He faithful will remain.
Be still, my soul; thy God doth undertake to guide the future as He has the past.
Thy hope, thy confidence, let nothing shake; All now mysterious shall be bright at last.
Be still, my soul, though dearest friends depart and all is darkened in the vale of tears;
Then shalt thou better know His love, His heart, Who comes to soothe thy sorrows and thy fears.
Be still, my soul; the hour is hastening on when we shall be forever with the Lord, when disappointment,
grief, and fear are gone, sorrow forgot, love's purest joys restored.
Be still, my soul; the hour is hastening on when we shall be forever with the Lord, when disappointment,
grief, and fear are gone, sorrow forgot, love's purest joys restored.
