Josef Rheinberger - Night Song - текст песни (слова)

1.The way is long and dreary,
 The path is bleak and bare;
 Our feet are worn and weary,
 But we will not despair;
 More heavy was Thy burden,
 More desolate Thy way,
 O Lamb of God, who takest the sins of the world away,
 Have mercy upon us, and give us Thy peace.
 
 2.The snows lie thick around us,
 In the dark and gloomy night;
 And the tempest wails above us,
 And the stars have hid their light;
 But blacker was the darkness
 Round Calvary's Cross that day,
 O Lamb of God, who takest the sins of the world away,
 Have mercy upon us, and give us Thy peace.
 
 3.Our hearts are faint with sorrow,
 Heavy and sad to bear;
 For we dread the bitter morrow,
 But we will not despair;
 Thou knowest all our anguish,
 And Thou wilt bid it cease;
 O Lamb of God, who takest the sins of the world away,
 Have mercy upon us, and give us Thy peace.
