andrew king - dives and lazarus lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
o as it fell a water upon one day
a rich dives, he merried a feast
and thereby invited all his friends
o and gently of the best

[verse 2]
now when lazarus, he laid him down and down
and down now at dives’ door
“some meat, some drink, brother dives
to bestow upon the poor”

[verse 3]
“thou art none of mine, brother lazarus
that goes begging now at my wall
no meat nor drink will i give thee
nor bestow upon the poor”

[verse 4]
now and lazarus he laid him down and down
now and down at dives’ hall
“some meat, some drink, brother dives
for hunger, starve i shall”

[verse 5]
“thou art none of mine, brother lazarus
that goes begging now at my wall
no meat nor drink will i give thee
for hunger, starve you shall”
[verse 6]
now and lazarus he laid him down and down
now and down at dives’ gate
“some meat, some drink, brother dives
for jesus christ, his sake”

[verse 7]
“thou art none of mine, brother lazarus
that goes begging now at my gate
no meat nor drink will i give thee
for jesus christ, his sake”

[verse 8]
now when dives sent out his merrymen all
for to whip poor lazarus away
but they had not the strength for to strike one strike
but they threw their whips away

[verse 9]
now when dives sent out his hungry dogs all
for to worry poor lazarus away
but they had not the will to bite one bite
but they l!cked his sores away

[verse 10]
now as it fell a water upon one day
poor lazarus sickened and died
and there came two angels out of heaven
his soul therein to guide
[verse 11]
saying, “arise, arise, brother lazarus
o and come along with me
for there is a place reserved in heaven
for to sit by the savior’s knee”

[verse 12]
now as it fell a water upon one day
rich dives, he sickened and he died
and there came two demons out of h_ll
his soul therein to guide

[verse 13]
saying, “arise, arise, brother dives
and come along with me
for there is a place reserved in h_ll
for to sit on the serpent’s knee”

[verse 14]
now when dives lifted up his face
and he saw poor lazarus blessed
“a drop of water, brother lazarus
for to slake mine aching thirst”

[verse 15]
“if i had as many days to abide here
as there are blades of grass
then i would have an unending day
that in h_ll forever must last”
[verse 16]
“oh, if i had as many days to abide here
as there are in stars in the sky
then i would have an unending day
that in h_ll forever must lie”
