The dark can only hinder it
Yet all the while 'neath
Lo he left all the others
Nor tear you asunder
'Neath the shadow of his wing
The burning ember
Yes an' he did find thee
An' that beast who found
Fire call the kettle black
Fire call the kettle black
His banner you did stand
Who's colors are never true
O come and stand with me mother
It will not hold you back
The dark can only hinder it
And the good shepherd
Yeah you do
He'll come a cinder
It will not hold you back
Crush the head of the serpent for you
An' head that way together
An' with bruised hands
His way up to your room
As we wait for the master's voice
He'll come a cinder
Into the light of day
He did unbind thee
He'll come a cinder
It will not hold you back
Brought you out
Sorrow stands near an' close at hand
You know the one the one
Fire call the kettle black
Do you remember
Nor tear you asunder
The dark can only hinder it
An' went to look for you
Sorrow stands an' in sorrow's hand
