Lyrics Purcell : King Arthur Z628 : Act 3 "What power art thou" [Cold Genius] - Henry Purcell , John Eliot Gardiner
What
Power
art
thou
Who
from
below
Hast
made
me
rise
Unwillingly
and
slow
From
beds
of
everlasting
snow
See'st
thou
not
how
stiff
And
wondrous
old
Far
unfit
to
bear
the
bitter
cold
I
can
scarcely
move
Or
draw
my
breath
I
can
scarcely
move
Or
draw
my
breath
Let
me,
let
me
Let
me,
freeze
again
Let
me,
let
me
Freeze
again
to
death
Let
me,
let
me
Let
me,
freeze
again
To
death
