Cold, Oh So Cold

Why must the wind blow so cold? …My skin is so thin My shivering bones …………… It’s letting the cold in I pray for the warmth ………..….But I hear only howls I loathe thee old winter ….. As you linger in my bowels My time is just torment ………….. I pray for warm rain But Satan’s in charge …………….. He’s making it plain I’ve lived my life sinful ………I’m now paying the price With snow, wind and pain …..…. And more slippery ice I try to do better ……………….. But just who do I fool? I’ll just live in this sty ………. …. And swim in its pool Warmness will find me ………. On my resurrection Day I’ll be judged and sentenced …………..Then burned away Ashes to ashes ………………………………. Dust to dust I’ll be no more with you ……………..On this you can trust
