Crooked Still - Florence Lyrics
Each moment brings it nighAnd all your glories stand revealedTo our admiring eyeYou wills of nature speed your course,You mortal powers decayFast as you bring the night of deathYou bring eternal dayYou weary heavy-laden soulsWho are oppressed soreYou travelers through the wildernessTo Canaan's peaceful shoreThrough beating winds and chilly rains,And waters deep and coldAnd enemies surrounding youHave courage and be boldThe storms and hurricanes ariseThe desert all aroundAnd fiery serpents oft appearThrough the enchanted groundDark night and clouds and gloomy fearAnd dragons often roarBut when the gospel trump we hearWe'll press for Canaan's shore
