THE LYRICS
The day is past and gone
The evening shade appears
Oh, may we all remember well
The night of death draws near
We'll lay our garments by
And on our beds we rest
So death will soon disrobe us all
Of what we here posess

she is an excellent pianist. i wonder if she is playing on this recording? whoever is playing is being used by god . you don't hear that type of piano playing in the black church anymore. you hear kirk franklin's music, but not this. i surely that another tradition has not been lost.

I have never heard a 14 year old child sing like this before. This woman was annointed and nobody can deny that. GOD's amazing grace was all over her during this time. Wow, i am still knocked out by the level of maturity in her voice at 14.

I know..to the untrained, it sounds like such a sad song,but in truth, its a testament of how knowing God eases the mind about death..to the point that we embrace it as being the gates to endless joy..Glory!
