Night

Tomorrow’s day and yesterday’s night,
Hath’ blown me from my mount
And darkened the skies of a prosperous man.
Where nothing has lived before—
Many a ways have come to this place
And my heart has died in transition.
Between good and evil,
With God close to me in my need.
When the time comes to turn,
Do not walk from this world—
As evil rains upon its step.
It is now yesterday’s day,
And tomorrow’s night.
