As Dust Begins to Fall Lyrics

Above the casket of my friend

I hear the words about the end

From this book in chapter three

The scripture of the seasons mean

When we’re born with brand new eyes

We know not of the means to die

We grow through life from planted seeds

We’re one day picked to fulfill deeds

Days cast away the heavy stones

And others bare more to the load

Together times are to embrace

Then embracing turns to refrain

When we get we soon will lose

To cast away or keep, we choose

Life can rend while God still sews

To be silent or to show

Time

A time to kill, a time to heal

A time to break, and a time to build

A time to weep, a time to laugh

A time to mourn, and a time to dance

To boast upon our lively works

Not knowing what comes after

From labored days we eat and drink

Rejoice or not? Live miserably

There’s wicked and there’s righteous hearts

But judgement shouldn’t be my art

A single place we all will end

From the dust to dust again

Time

A time to kill, a time to heal

A time to break, and a time to build

A time to weep, a time to laugh

A time to mourn, and a time to dance

From the ground the maker breaths

The dust into the man we see

Seasons from the one above

We mourn from loss of living beings

Hate

Love

Peace

War

Time

A time to kill, a time to heal

A time to break, and a time to build

A time to weep, a time to laugh

A time to mourn, and a time to dance

From the ground the maker breaths

The dust into the man we see

Seasons from the one above

We mourn from loss of living beings

Wherefore I perceive that there is nothing better

Than that a man should rejoice in his own works

For that is his portion

For who shall bring him to see what shall be after him
