lyrics

My mother is gone
My father is gone
I work in the fields on my own
Days and nights
Spent with the sheep
Twenty odd years living asleep
Twenty odd years living asleep
Twenty odd years living asleep

His hand when it came
Shook me like a leaf
It shook me out of my long sleep
It picked me up
And lifted me out
Of the plain pine box where I was laid out
Of the plain pine box where I was laid out
Of the plain pine box where I was laid out

Their wicked eyes
Burned holes in my heart
And so at first I lived apart
But fear and mistrust
Soon hemmed me in
'Til hunger and pain were my only friends
'Til hunger and pain were my only friends
'Til hunger and pain were my only friends

I kept no money
No jewels or fine clothes
Since I first from sleep arose
Frozen rivers and raging fires
Thorns and brambles are my desire
Thorns and brambles are my desire
Thorns and brambles are my desire

No fire can burn
I am reborn
No ice can hold me
I change my form
No pain can break me
I'm already healed
No wind can shake me
His hand is my shield
