Cinder Alley Lyrics

Lovely lovely carol sue
I see the heel of the father
Crush the head of the serpent for you
An' that beast who foundHis way up to your room
You know the one the one
Who's colors are never true
Yeah you doYet all the while 'neath
His banner you did stand
'Neath the shadow of his wing
Do you rememberSorrow stands near an' close at hand
Sorrow stands an' in sorrow's hand
The burning emberHe'll come a cinder
Fire call the kettle black
The dark can only hinder it
It will not hold you back
Nor tear you asunderAnd the good shepherd
Lo he left all the others
An' went to look for you

Yes an' he did find theeAn' with bruised hands
He did unbind thee
Brought you out
Into the light of dayHe'll come a cinder
Fire call the kettle black
The dark can only hinder it
It will not hold you back
Nor tear you asunderO come and stand with me mother
As we wait for the master's voice
An' head that way togetherHe'll come a cinder
Fire call the kettle black
The dark can only hinder it
It will not hold you back
Nor tear you asunder
