At Dusk

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

The sun has laid its crown down

On the far side of the hill

And every field is folding

Into silence deep and still

My father's house grows dim now

Its windows lose their gold

And I am left to wander

Where the evening turns so cold

Verse 2

I gave my word to someone

I gave my years to toil

I gave my hands to labor

On another person's soil

But evening finds me standing

With nothing I can hold

A stranger at the threshold

Of a story growing old

Chorus

At dusk I come to find you

At dusk I call your name

At dusk the shadows lengthen

And nothing looks the same

At dusk I come to find you

At dusk I kneel and pray

At dusk I beg for morning

To carry me away

Verse 3

The bells across the valley

Have counted out the hours

They ring for men who mattered

They ring for distant powers

And I have been forgotten

Like a garden left to seed

Still I lift my weary voice

To plant one final creed

Chorus

At dusk I come to find you

At dusk I call your name

At dusk the shadows lengthen

And nothing looks the same

At dusk I come to find you

At dusk I kneel and pray

At dusk I beg for morning

To carry me away

Bridge

Let the rivers rise

Let the mountains fall

Let the heavens open wide

Let me hear you call

Let the rivers rise

Let the mountains fall

Let me hear you call

Chorus

At dusk I come to find you

At dusk I call your name

At dusk the shadows lengthen

And nothing looks the same

At dusk I come to find you

At dusk I kneel and pray

At dusk I beg for morning

To carry me away

Outro
