Dead Body Did Drown
Dead Body Did Drown
Dead body did drown down into deep sea
I remembered what had come over me
So much sadness filled with many tears
About sadness filled with hopes and fears.
There was a time when you were first born
While whole world was full of sin and scorn
All of those facts did face each and every day
Will my delight ever overcome all of my dismay?
From moment to moment question would ponder
As it played in my mind and then from yonder
An angel appeared God had sent to each of us
About all of our problems did try to discuss.
Go to Episcopal Church and join its choir
Sing all those many songs that will inspire
You down deep into body, mind and soul
Faith and trust in God is his greatest goal.
So my find friend your soul will never end
Again and again this message want to send
When you want to be merry and full of cheer
Pray to God forever and will be close and near.
