You Will Burn

Steeleye Span

    Continues after the ad

    One night as you sleep in your goose feather bed
    We will be kneeling at your bedside
    We'll pray for your soul like the good Lord said
    Let all be forgiven let none be denied

    Then one night as you sleep in your goose feather bed
    We will be standing at your bedside
    Your bones will be broken and your blood will be shed
    Your eyes will be taken and your hands will be tied

    Then we'll take you to the forest
    Where none will hear your cry
    And we'll cut down the Sycamore and Broom
    And it's there we will forgive you
    And it's there we'll watch you die
    Like a dancing silhouette against the moon

    And you will burn, you will burn
    We will purify your soul in the fire, in the fire
    And your spirit will live forever
    It will rise, it will rise
    From the ashes and the embers in your eyes, in your eyes
    And your spirit will live forever

    Praise the Lord
    Another soul is saved
    Praise the Lord
    Praise the Lord

    One night as you sleep in your goose feather bed
    We will be kneeling at your bedside
    We'll pray for your soul like the good Lord said
    Let all be forgiven let none be denied

    Then one night as you sleep in your goose feather bed
    We will be standing at your bedside
    And your home will be burning and your child will be dead
    Your eyes will be taken and your hands will be tied

    Then we'll take you to the forest
    Where none will hear your cry
    And we'll cut down the Sycamore and Broom
    And it's there we will forgive you
    And it's there we'll watch you die
    Like a dancing silhouette against the moon

    And you will burn, you will burn
    We will purify your soul in the fire, in the fire
    And your spirit will live forever
    It will rise, it will rise
    From the ashes and the embers in your eyes, in your eyes
    And your spirit will live forever

    Praise the Lord
    Another soul is saved
    Praise the Lord
    Praise the Lord
    Praise the Lord
    Another soul is saved
    Praise the Lord
    Praise the Lord
