Lyrics And Am I Born To Die - Béla Fleck , Abigail Washburn

And am I born to die?
To lay this body down
And must my trembling spirit fly
Into a world unknown?

Soon as from earth I go
What will become of me?
Eternal happiness or woe?
What shall my portion be?

A land of deepest shade
Unpierced by human thought
The dreary regions of the dead
Where all things are forgot

And am I born to die
To lay this body down?
And must my trembling spirit fly
Into a world unknown?
