To Mourn Job

While we sit anxious around the bonfires
 Trying to think of things to say
 All is lying at the very brink
 I guess we've seen enough today
 Aye, it is with truth I say:
 all fierce to avenge we were
 As Job had fallen prey
 This night was just a blur
 His spirit we will cherish
 To mourn - we had no time
 The wicked's light shall perish
 His spark of fire shall not shine
 Aye, it is with truth I say:
 all fierce to avenge we were
 As Job had fallen prey
 This night was just a blur
 His spirit we will cherish
 To mourn - we had no time
 The wicked's light shall perish
 His spark of fire shall not shine
 The bo'sun placed his hand with dread
 Over the poor lad's heart
 Job - so mangled an be-bled
 And the boy moved not ever again
 Our bonfires well raked
 Sent up nightly pillars of flame
 The next morning's dawn we waked
 There was a great wind and rain
 Our bonfires well raked
 Sent up nightly pillars of flame
 The next morning's dawn we waked
 There was a great wind and rain
 I hope some day, my friend
 You'll be back on peaceful soil
 The least said the better
 Gotten rid of all turmoil
