The Hawthorn Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In darkest night, witching night
Among the hawthorn, oh
When the moon has come to Earth
The shepherd tends his flock
A babe in arms, the innocent cry
Among the hawthorn, oh
Fire is burning in the sky
The shepherd tends his flock
[Verse 2]
Oh, youthful maid of truthful staid
Among the hawthorn, oh
Tears are offered willingly
To the shepherd and his flock
The veil of death, a pauper's mask
Among the hawthorn, oh
A solemn task must now transpire
The shepherd tends his flock
[Verse 3]
God is lost, love is lost
Among the hawthorn, oh
The dank of time pervades the air
The shepherd tends his flock
An ancient wind disturbs the leaves
Among the hawthorn, oh
There is a presence in the air
The shepherd tends his flock
[Verse 4]
A church bell peals, a branch cast forth
Among the hawthorn, oh
Christ shall not receive this soul
The shepherd tends his flock
Into the ground, into the earth
Among the hawthorn, oh
Life breeds life, death brings life to
The shepherd and his flock
The shepherd and his flock
The shepherd and his flock
In darkest night, witching night
Among the hawthorn, oh
When the moon has come to Earth
The shepherd tends his flock
A babe in arms, the innocent cry
Among the hawthorn, oh
Fire is burning in the sky
The shepherd tends his flock
Oh, youthful maid of truthful staid
Among the hawthorn, oh
Tears are offered willingly
To the shepherd and his flock
The veil of death, a pauper's mask
Among the hawthorn, oh
A solemn task must now transpire
The shepherd tends his flock
God is lost, love is lost
Among the hawthorn, oh
The dank of time pervades the air
The shepherd tends his flock
An ancient wind disturbs the leaves
Among the hawthorn, oh
There is a presence in the air
The shepherd tends his flock
A church bell peals, a branch cast forth
Among the hawthorn, oh
Christ shall not receive this soul
The shepherd tends his flock
Into the ground, into the earth
Among the hawthorn, oh
Life breeds life, death brings life to
The shepherd and his flock
The shepherd and his flock
The shepherd and his flock
