The Den

I
Was in the den
For a night
Wailing and trembling
For a night


I
Was in the den
For a time
Shedding tears and shaking
Feeling sick and fretting
For a while


I
was in the den
For a while
Thinking and figuring
Ranting and praying
For a time


Came the darkness
Of the night
To forestall me
Fill the air
The cloud and the whole place
Then you gave light in a moon
