Close every door to me
hide all the world from me
Bar all my windows and shut out the light
Do what you want to me
hate me and laugh at me
Darken my daytime and torture my night
If my life were important
I would ask will I live or die
But I know the answers lie far from this world
Close every door to me
Keep those I love from me
Children of Israel are never alone
For I know I shall find my peace of mind
For I have been promised a land of my own |
