Lyrics

[Verse 1] Lovely, lovely Carol Sue I see the heel of the father Crush the head of the serpent for you And that beast who found His way up to your room You know the one The one whose colors are never true Yeah, you do [Verse 2] Yet all the while beneath His banner you did stand And 'neath the shadow of his wing Do you remember? Sorrow stands near and close at hand Sorrow stands, and in Sorrow's hand The burning ember [Chorus] He'll come a cinder Fire call the kettle black The dark can only hinder then It will not hold you back, no Nor tear you asunder [Verse 3] And the good shepherd Lo, he left all the others And went to look for you Yes and he did find thee And with bruised hands He did unbind thee Brought you out Into the light of day [Chorus] He'll come a cinder Fire call the kettle black The dark can only hinder then It will not hold you back, no Nor tear you asunder [Bridge] Oh come an' stand with me, Mother As we wait for the master's voice And head that way together [Chorus] He'll come a cinder Fire call the kettle black The dark can only hinder then It will not hold you back, no Nor tear you asunder
