Lyrics

Cold Song

[Verse] What power art thou who from below Hast made me unwillingly and slow From beds of everlasting snow? Sees thou not how stiff, how stiff and wondrous old Far, far unfit to bear the bitter cold? I can scarcely move or draw my breath Let me, let me, let me freeze again to death
