That lover of a night Came when he would, Went in the dawning light Whether I would or no; Men come, men go All things remain in God All things remain in God Banners choke the sky And men-at-arms tread Armoured horses neigh Where the great banner has been In the narrow pass All things remain in God All things remain in God I once had sweet Jack for a lover But like a road they cross over My body makes no moan It sings on and on All things remain in God All things remain in God Before their eyes a house That from childhood stood Ruinous, uninhabited Suddenly lit up from within From the door to the top All things remain in God All things remain in God Oh, that lover of a night Came when he would Went with the dawning light Whether I would or no Men come, and they go All things remain in God All things remain in God All things remain in God All things remain in God All things remain in God
