Come every heart let you eschew
Every deed that you did do
That broke the heart of the Black King
And made him weep in suffering.
Cast all your dark deeds away from you
You cannot last for the day is through
Time has caught up with the giddy blast
A fickle love that will time outlast
For it is full of sadness and woe
To the depths of hell it will surely go.
Into the blue you will soar with delight
At every sin now cast aside with the sight
Of the man on the cross who died today
That you in clover in your soul will stay,
And never cease to sing out loud
The Black King derided the white shroud
That held Him fast for so short a time
To buy you heaven in light sublime.
