He was, he was in the churchyard
My father was in the first part
He came, he came to my bedroom
But I was asleep, he woke me up again to say

"Halle, Halle, Hallelujah
Holy, Holy is the sound"

And I hope, I hope you are tired out
And I know, I know there is joy endowed
But I was asleep and he woke me up again
And he woke me up again to say

"Hold on, hold on to your old ways
Or put off, put off every old face"

And I know, I know you are changed out
I hope, I hope you're arranged out
But I'm still asleep and you woke me up again
And I'm still asleep but you woke me up to leave
