Oh, that elysian place of peace, where stillness is heightened and sorrow is released.

Oh, that elysian place of peace, where stillness is heightened and sorrow is released.

They run wild in the night
Hoping their spirits take flight
By the dawning of the light
Peaceful waters flow over my soul.
Weary souls seek refuge
To come in from the cold
From dark and perilous nights,
And fierce and dogged fights
As they walk into that light
Oh, that divine and wondrous light,
And no more face that night,
That dark and treacherous night;
Where sleeplessness abounds
And sorrow and misery are found,
They were once in anguish bound
In torment they were bound,
But now have found their way
To that promised and glorious day
In peacefulness and light;
To the world they say goodnight,
In tranquil rest they say goodnight.
