Nobody knows what waits ahead
Beyond the earth and sky
Lie-d Lie-d Lie
I'm not afraid to die
And there the work of my own hand
Be broken by and by
Lie-d Lie-d Lie
I'm not afraid to die
Sometimes it finds me fast asleep
And wakes me where I lie
Lie-d Lie-d Lie
I'm not afraid to die
Forget my sins upon the wind
My hobo soul will rise
Lie-d Lie-d Lie
I'm not afraid to die
Lie-d Lie-d Lie
I'm not afraid to die
-Gillian Welch

I love Gillian Welch. Have you ever seen her live? The photo is also amazing.
ReplyDeleteMichael, wishing you and your family well...
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, I didn't see the title the first time I looked at this. I am also sorry for your loss. I hope it was as painless as possible.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry too, Mikel. Lots of hugs and love to you.
