lyrics
Oh my lord my maker
wherefore art have you gone?
Left us here with no path and no plan—
left us on the run.
Oh my lord my breaker
look at all that you’ve done—
every prayer that we offer’s for naught,
every promise undone.
Oh my lord my savior
don’t come saving me yet.
I will offer to curse up your name—
that’s the best you get.
Oh my friend my brother
come with me to the end.
There’s a place where we sinners can rest—
there’s a place we can sin.
