letra de hicks' farewell - dr. watson
version #1
————————–
my time is swiftly rolling on
when i must faint and die;
my body to the dust return
and there fergotten lie
let persecution rage around
and antichrist appear;
my silent dust beneath the ground;
there’s no disturbance there
to call poor sinners to repent
and seek their savior dear
my brother preachers, boldly speak
and stand on zion’s wall
confirm the drunk, confirm the weak
and after sinners call
my loving wife, my bosom friend
the object of my love
the time’s been sweet l’ve spent with you
my sweet and harmless dove
my little children near my heart
my warm affections know
from each the path will i attend
o from them can i go?!
o god, a father to them be
and keep them from all harm
that they may love and worship thee
and dwell upon thy charm
how often you have looked fer me
and often seen me come
but now i must depart from thee
and nevermore return
my loving wife, don’t grieve fer me
neither lament nor mourn;
fer i will with my jesus be
and dwell upon his charm
version #2
————————–
the time is swiftly rolling on
when i must faint and die
my body to the dust return
and there forgotten lie
let persecutions rage around
let antichrist appear;
beneath the cold and silent ground
there’s no disturbance there
through heats and cold i’ve toiled and went
and wandered in despair;
to call poor sinners to repent
and seek the savior dear
my brother preachers, boldly speak
and stand on zion’s wall
confirm the strong, revive the weak
and after sinners call
my little children, near my heart
and nature seems to bind
it grieves me sorely to depart
and leave you here behind
oh lord, a father to them be
and keep them from all harm
that they may love and worship thee
and dwell upon thy charm
my loving wife, my bosom friend
the object of my love
the time’s been sweet i spent with thee
my sweet, my harmless dove
though i must now depart from thee
let this not grieve your heart
for you will shortly come to me
where we shall never part
