Robert Ramsey - Sleep, Fleshly Birth Lyrics

Lyrics Sleep, Fleshly Birth - Robert Ramsey



Sleep, fleshly birth, in peaceful earth
And let thine ears list to the music of the spheres
While we around this fairy ground
Thy doleful obit keeping
Make marble melt with weeping
With num'rous feet we'll part and meet
Then chorus like in a ring thy praises sing
While show'rs of flow'rs bestrew thee
We'll thus with tears bedew thee
Rest in soft peace, sweet youth and there remain
'Till soul and body meet to join again
