Patrick Wolf - Idumea

And am I born to die
To lay this body down
And must my trembling spirit fly
Into a world unknown

A land of deeper shade
Unpierced by human thought
The dreary regions of the dead
Where all things are forgot

Soon as from earth I go
What will become of me
Eternal happiness or woe
Will then my portion be

Waked by the trumpet sound
I from my grave shall rise
And see the judge with glory crowned
And see the flaming sky

one of the best things he has ever done. His version of 'hazelwood' is brilliant too. I wish he still made music like this.

It's not actually written by Patrick Wolf but it is breath taking.
